| Sitting on these rolls for awhile now, I finally started going through them |
Just the other day, while sifting through rolls of 1940s pennies I found a silver 25 öre coin from Sweden. Dated 1897, the obverse has the crowned monogram of King Oscar II surrounded by the three crowns of Sweden and the Royal Family’s motto “BRÖDRAFOLKENS VÄL” (the welfare of the brother peoples). Smooth edged, the reverse has the value (25 öre) within a laurel wreath with the date below. Not in great condition, someone punched a hole through it to make a pendant out of it.
