Interesting fact
The 1⁄16 Riksdaler Specie coin from Sweden, minted during the reign of Oscar I (1845-1855), features an interesting design element - a crowned shield with the Swedish coat of arms, surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. This design was a departure from the previous design, which featured a simple shield with the coat of arms, and was intended to symbolize the power and authority of the Swedish monarchy.
