Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Öre coin from Sweden, minted during the reign of Carl XV (1860-1872), is that it was the first coin in Sweden to feature a portrait of the monarch on the obverse (front side), which was a departure from the previous design that featured the coat of arms of Sweden. This change in design was a nod to the increasing popularity of portrait coins in Europe at the time and marked a shift towards more personalized and humanized representations of monarchs on currency.
