Comment
Mint-master: Lorentz Careelberg mm L.C.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 5 Öre Silvermynt - Ulrika Eleonora 1719 from Sweden is that it was minted during a time when Sweden was experiencing a severe shortage of copper, which was the primary metal used for coinage at the time. To address this issue, the Swedish government decided to introduce a new coin made of Billon, a silver-copper alloy that contained 44.4% silver and 55.6% copper. This coin was lighter in weight than previous coins and had a lower silver content, but it was still considered a valuable and reliable form of currency. Despite the challenges posed by the copper shortage, the 5 Öre Silvermynt - Ulrika Eleonora 1719 remains a sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
