Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Karl IX, who was the King of Sweden from 1604 to 1611. He was instrumental in introducing a new currency system in Sweden, which included the 1 Öre coin, and he also established the Göteborg mint, where this coin was produced.
