SWEDEN. Copper 1/2 Daler Plate Money, 1741. Avesta Mint. Fredrik I. VERY FINE.
KM-PM65. Dimensions approximately: 106mm x 96mm. Weight: 361 gms. Stamps: Central stamp bearing denomination (1/2 DALER SILFMYNT) and crossed arrows, surrounded by four stamps bearing crowned FRS and date. A charming example, with well impressed peripheral stamps, and a woodgrain copper appearance. Some evidence of weakness and handling is seen, but this does little to dampen the attractivity of the piece.
