Albert Pillar of the Community United States 1910 Posts	Posted 02/01/2026 12:20 pm This coin was given to me as unknown. I know what it is. No clues for diameter or weight. None should be needed. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34393 Posts	Posted 02/01/2026 1:08 pm That number 7 looks positively Swedish. Is it a 2 Öre? https://en.numista.com/28455 If so, there here is the coin that got me pointed in the right direction: https://goccf.com/t/469361&whichpage=572#4309864 "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 24894 Posts	Posted 02/01/2026 1:46 pm It looks like one of those Öre for sure. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
Albert Pillar of the Community United States 1910 Posts	Posted 02/01/2026 1:49 pm Yes both got it in less time than it took me. It's the Sweden ore 12-ish grams. Curious about Finn70? My boat was the FinLander years ago. I am a Yooper. Grandparents from Finland. Hard to find a good pasty Uncle Carl was from Sweden. Married Grandma's sister.

Finn70 Valued Member United States 247 Posts	Posted 02/01/2026 4:28 pm Albert, my Finnish ancestors first settled in Calumet, Michigan in 1873, before for finally settling in Cokato, Minnesota. The best pasty I ever had was in Houghton, MI. Always a pleasure to meet another Yooper and happy coin collecting! Report this Post to the Staff
