Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Fyrk - Gustav II Adolf (Säter or Nyköping mint; pattern strike) 1625 from Sweden made of Copper is that it is a rare and highly sought-after coin among collectors. It is considered a "pattern" coin, meaning that it was struck as a trial or sample coin, and not intended for circulation. As a result, only a small number of these coins were produced, making them highly valuable to collectors. Additionally, the fact that it was made of copper, which was a less valuable metal at the time, adds to its rarity and historical significance.
