This specimen was lot 46109 in Stack's Bowers ANA sale (Costa Mesa, CA, August 2021), where it sold for $360. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "[[Sweden|SWEDEN]]. Krona, 1888 EB. Oscar II. PCGS AU-55 Gold Shield. A well struck coin with abundant luster remaining in the fields, and splashes of dark gray to charcoal toning in the fields." Collecting Swedish coins is complicated by the multiple currency reforms the country underwent during the period. In 1873, the riksdaler species was dropped and 100 öre = one krona (the krona, at 7.5 g, .800 fine silver, was slightly smaller than the old riksdaler riksmynt). The type is noted for 1877-89. This date is common in worn condition but scarce nice. The system adopted in 1873 is still in use today, the Swedes having recently declined to adopt the euro.

''Recorded mintage:'' 62,000, a better date.

''Specification:'' 7.5 g, .800 fine silver, 25 mm diameter.

''Catalog reference:'' KM-747.
