Interesting fact

The 1 Öre coin from Sweden, featuring Gustav II Adolf, was made of silver, which was a common material for coins at that time. However, due to the wear and tear of circulation, many of these coins have survived in poor condition, making them valuable among collectors. In fact, some mint states of this coin can sell for up to $1,000! (Source: Numista)
