This specimen was lot 31818 in Heritage sale 3029 (New York, January 2014), where it sold for $235. The catalog description[1] noted, "Oscar I 5 Ore 1857-LA, MS61 Brown NGC. Short Curved Top 5 (the more common variety). Deep brown surfaces with virtually no wear evident. Ex: "Colonel" E.H.R. Green; Green Estate' Partnership of Eric P Newman/B.G. Johnson." This specimen was offered again as lot 49465 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2026), where it sold for $85. 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, one-third, half, two-thirds, one, two and four skilling issued in copper. The smallest silver denomination, the 1/32 riksdaler, was four skilling. In 1855, the skilling was dropped and 400 öre = 4 riksdaler riksmynt = one riksdaler species (the riksdaler species remained unchanged). In 1873, the riksdaler species was dropped and 100 öre = one krona (the krona, at 7.5 g, 0.800 fine silver, was slightly smaller than the old riksdaler riksmynt). This type is listed for 1857-58 only and is not easy to find in nice condition.
Recorded mintage: 731,000 (all varieties).
