Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 4 Riksdaler - Gustav II Adolf (Type II) 1632 coin from Sweden is that it features a unique design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally placed there by the mint to signify the coin's authenticity and to prevent counterfeiting. This feature is known as a "plug" or "hole punch" and was a common technique used in the 17th century to ensure the authenticity of silver coins.
