Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Riksdaler - Carl XIII (without "NORR") 1812-1814 coin from Sweden is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the country. The coin was introduced in 1812, just a few years after Sweden had experienced a period of economic turmoil and political upheaval, including the abolition of the guild system and the introduction of a new constitution. Despite these challenges, the coin remained a popular and widely used denomination throughout Sweden until it was eventually phased out in the late 19th century.
