Interesting fact
The 1 Hvid - Hans (Visby; type 2) ND (1510-1513) coin from Gotland (Sweden) made of Silver weighing 0.72 g is a rare and valuable coin among collectors due to its historical significance and limited mintage. It was issued during the reign of King Hans (1481-1513) and features an image of the king on one side and the coat of arms of Gotland on the other. The coin's design and mintage were overseen by the Danish Royal Mint, which was responsible for producing coins for the entire Kalmar Union, a political union between Denmark, Norway, and Sweden that lasted from 1397 to 1523. The coin's rarity and historical significance make it a highly sought-after collector's item, and it is considered a valuable addition to any collection of medieval coins.
