Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat - Carl XIII (without "NORR") 1810-1814 from Sweden is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Sweden. The coin was introduced in 1810, just a few years after Sweden had adopted a new constitution and was in the process of modernizing its economy. The coin's design, which features an image of King Carl XIII on one side and the Swedish coat of arms on the other, was meant to symbolize the country's newfound independence and prosperity. Despite being minted in relatively small quantities, the coin remains a popular collector's item among numismatists today.
