Copper coins and banknotes

The display case shows a selection of the coins and banknotes issued during the period 1624-1776. From the 1620s to the mid-18th century, the history of Swedish coins and money is dominated by copper. In 1624, King Gustav II Adolf had copper coins minted. There was a shortage of coins in the country after Sweden paid the ransom for Älvsborg to Denmark after the Kalmar War of 1611-1613. The supply of silver was limited but copper was plentiful. By making copper coins, the shortage of coins would be remedied and at the same time the price of copper would go up because there was not as much copper available on the market.
