Interesting fact
The 1 Öre coin from the City of Reval (Swedish Estonia) made of Silver weighing 1.25g is interesting because it was minted during the reign of Gustav II Adolf, who was the King of Sweden from 1611 to 1632. He was known for his military campaigns and his efforts to strengthen the Swedish state, and this coin was likely used as a means of currency during his reign.
