Watch List notes:

Sweden, Gustav Vasa SM 163 1 daler 1550. 28,61 g. Svartsjö. The scarce daler coinage of 1550 has been engraved by two different engravers. The difference between Erik Olofssons and Steffen Bengtssons work is significant, and easily noticed, especially in details on the obverse. The Olofsson engraved daler is significantly different from all other Svartsjö minted dalers in that it has a more crude style engraving. The portrait of the King appears to have eyes poppping out and the cheeks are puffy. The Crowns of Svea in the Coat-of-Arms deviate significantly from their regular appearance. This example is from the dies of Erik Olofsson, which is significantly more scarce than the Steffen Bengtsson engraved counterpart. Fewer than a handful known in private hands! Lightly worked in fields. RRR. Ex Ingvar Ehnbom, Malmö Mynthandel 2000. SMB 28. App 672. 1/1+
