Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Daler Silvermynt - Adolf Fredrik 1751-1760 from Sweden is that it was made of copper, which was a unusual choice for a coin of its denomination at the time. Most coins of similar value were made of silver or gold, but the use of copper was likely a deliberate choice to make the coin more accessible to the general population. This coin was also notable for its large size and weight, weighing in at 1500 grams.
