Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Rosenobler - Johan III (Type II) ND (1585-1586) coin from Sweden is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the country. The coin was issued during the reign of King Johan III, who was instrumental in introducing new currency reforms in an effort to stabilize Sweden's economy. The 2 Rosenobler coin was one of the new denominations introduced during this time, and it was intended to be used as a standard circulation coin. Despite its intended use, the coin is now a rare and highly sought-after collector's item, with only a limited number of coins known to exist today.
