This specimen was lot 30999 in Heritage sale 3029 (New York, January 2014), where it sold for $646.25. The catalog description[1] noted, "Carl XIV Johan 2 Skilling 1840, MS63 Brown NGC. A lovely example with rich brown surfaces and red-orange luster in the legends. Very scarce grade for this large copper type. Ex: 'Colonel' E.H.R. Green; Green Estate' Partnership of Eric P Newman/B.G. Johnson." In the reform of 1830, the sixth and third riksdalers were dropped for eighth, quarter and half riksdalers. The skilling, formerly 1/48 riksdaler, became 1/128 riksdaler and new one-sixth (KM 639), one-third, half, two-thirds, one, two and four skilling issued in copper. The smallest silver denomination, the 1/32 riksdaler, was three skilling.
