Comment
Diameter varies from 38 mm - 41 mm.Interesting fact
The Gustav Vasa 1 Daler coin from Sweden, minted in 1534, features an interesting error on its reverse side. The coin's design was meant to show a crowned shield with the royal arms, but due to a mistake in the minting process, the shield appears without a crown. This error has become a distinctive feature of the coin, making it highly sought after by collectors.
