Sweden
Selections from the Eric P. Newman Collection of World Coins. Carl XIII Riksdaler 1818-OL, KM588, SM-16, MS64 NGC. A fully mint state example with somewhat mottled patina and a nicely balanced strike on both sides. The surfaces are remarkable in that there are no adjustment marks to the flan, a defect which almost always plagues this issue. The royal title for this type was altered in 1814 to include "NORR" which represented Sweden's acquisition of Norway following the Napoleonic Wars. Krause catalog price(s) for this item: $460 in VF, $950 in EF.
Estimate: 4000-5000 USD
