Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Skilling - Charles XIV Johan (Pattern strike) 1826 from Sweden made of Copper weighing 16.4g is that it is a rare and valuable coin among collectors due to its limited mintage and historical significance. It was produced during the reign of King Charles XIV John, who ruled Sweden from 1818 to 1844, and features an image of the king on one side and the Swedish coat of arms on the other. The coin's design was meant to be a trial strike, hence the "Pattern" label, and it was never officially released into circulation. As a result, only a small number of these coins were minted, making them highly sought after by collectors today.
