Interesting fact
The 2 Skilling Banco coin from Sweden, minted during the reign of Carl XIV Johan (1835-1843), 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 coinage designs, which featured a more simplistic motif. The inclusion of the laurel wreath was meant to symbolize the king's power and wisdom.
