Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Kronor - Gustaf V 1910-1940 coin from Sweden is that it was minted during a time of great change and turmoil in the country. King Gustaf V, who ruled from 1907 to 1950, was the last Swedish monarch to rule during a time of absolute monarchy, and his reign saw the transition to a constitutional monarchy. Additionally, this coin was minted during a period of economic and political neutrality for Sweden, as the country did not participate in World War I. Despite this, the coin still features a regal and elegant design, showcasing the strength and resilience of the Swedish monarchy during a time of upheaval.
