John 1 thank you for the quick reply, I'm not sure but it might be. It's definitely not an american coin.

Sorry,no Check ebay sold values or wait for more members to chime in.It does have silver value.It is the highest mintage of the 4 listed and with the damage on the obverse,you might only get silver value. John1  Edited by John1

Certainly Swedish. 1 Riksdaler, Sweden 1806Looks to be in fair condition, some unfortunate deep scratches on the portrait but otherwise doesn't look polished, like many of these coins tend to be. |

I think these are adjustment marks, and not post mint damage. Here is one that sold a few years ago. There are similar marks on the reverse, though not as deep or numerous. Probably still a good guide to the potential value. https://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotv...e9a219b8fa2fEdited by tdziemia

Of course the coin from coinarchives is a 1/6 riksdaler, not a 1 riksdaler.

Here's a French coin with similar adjustment marks. (I wish they didn't do this on the busts, but what can you do...)  These are fairly common on pre 1820 silver coins. I'd value your 1806 riksdaler in the $100-150 range. It's a nice coin and definitely not a melter. "Two minutes ago I would have sold my chances for a tired dime." Fred Astaire
