🪙 1821 Sweden 1/4 Skilling
Early 19th Century Copper | Reign of Carl XIV Johan | Swedish Napoleonic Era History
This 1821 1/4 Skilling is a rugged and historical copper piece from the Kingdom of Sweden. Struck during the early years of the reign of Carl XIV Johan—the former Napoleonic Marshal Jean-Baptiste Bernadotte—this coin reflects the transition of Sweden into the modern era. As a small denomination workhorse of the early 1800s, it provided essential liquidity for the Swedish peasantry and merchants alike during a period of significant Baltic reorganization.

Note: This over 200-year-old copper specimen displays authentic circulation wear consistent with centuries of history. You can expect to see honest "pocket wear" on the high points of the royal crown and the centers of the crossed arrows.
