Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 4 Daler Silvermynt - Adolf Fredrik 1753-1768 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 one of the first coins to feature the image of King Adolf Fredrik, who was the King of Sweden from 1751 to 1771.
