Interesting fact

The Pattern 4 Skilling - Oscar I (Pattern strike) 1845 from Sweden made of Copper weighing 25g is a rare and valuable coin. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted in 1845 as a pattern coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a sample or prototype for a new coin design. This makes it particularly sought after by collectors. Additionally, the coin features an error in the die, where the number "4" in the date is misprinted as "3", making it even more unique and valuable.
