Interesting fact
The Pattern 10 Penningar coin was designed by Swedish artist and engraver, Erik Lindberg, and features an image of King Oscar I on the obverse side, with the reverse side bearing the coat of arms of Sweden. The coin was minted in 1847-1848 as a pattern strike, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a trial or sample coin. It is believed that only 15-20 of these coins were minted, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
