Comment
Weight and diameter may vary.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Daler - Karl "Lord Protector" (Type II) 1600 from Sweden is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Sweden. The coin was minted in 1600, just a few years after the death of King Sigismund III of Poland, who had also been the King of Sweden. This led to a period of political instability and power struggles, which ultimately resulted in the appointment of Karl IX as the Lord Protector of Sweden. Despite this turmoil, the coin still features the iconic image of the King on horseback, symbolizing strength and leadership.
