Interesting fact
The 1 Speciedaler coin from Norway, featuring Christian VII's first bust, has an interesting feature. Despite being minted in 1791-1792, it still carries the year 1791 on its reverse side. This is because the coin was minted using a defective die that had the wrong year engraved on it. This error was not corrected, and the coins were still released into circulation, making them a unique and sought-after collector's item.
