Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Daler "Kronan" coin is that it features an image of King Gustav Vasa, who played a significant role in Swedish history. He was the founder of the Vasa dynasty, which ruled Sweden for over 200 years, and is credited with establishing Sweden as an independent Protestant nation. The coin's design, which includes a portrait of Gustav Vasa, was created by the artist Erik Lindberg and was first introduced in 1934.
