(Don't forget to do an advanced search, check the "completed listings" box.) Report this Post to the Staff

Litotes Pillar of the Community Norway 510 Posts	Posted 11/16/2011 11:23 am The Swedes actually have a grading scale from 1 to 10. If your 5 agrees with theirs, which I would not take for granted, it is worth SEK 175. A 6 would be worth SEK 250, a 4 SEK 125. You will notice 10 is best here. As for dollars, $1 is worth approximately 6,75 SEK. There are 100 öre for each krona, so the original purchase value of the coin was something like 1,5 cents. Which was a lot more back in 1874 than today. Report this Post to the Staff

Comparing that with today's gold prices, it would be the equivalent of $2.28. Either way, it's definitely worth more as a collectable coin than its face value. Scandinavian coins are quite popular; the values in my old catalogue are now hopeless underestimates. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
