Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Örtug - Hans ND (1497-1501) from Sweden made of Silver is that it was minted during the reign of King Hans (also known as John II) of Denmark and Norway, who ruled from 1481 to 1513. This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign to standardize the currency across the three countries. The Örtug was a silver coin that was equivalent to 1/4 of a Swedish daler, and it featured the king's name and title on one side and the coat of arms of Sweden on the other.
