Sweden Ore 1697 to 1717

King Carl XII reigned in Sweden from 1697 to 1718. The 1 ore coins have his crowned monogram on one side and the three crowns of Sweden on the other. Catalog values for all dates run approximately like this:

worn: $20 US dollars approximate catalog value
average circulated: $80
well preserved: $130

The coin in our picture comes from Kapaan & Mades in Bochum, Germany where it is on sale for 80 euros, about $110. Neat coin!

If you were selling a coin like this to Kapaan & Mades or any other honest coin dealer, figure a wholesale to retail mark-up of 100 percent. That means the dealer would offer you about one-half the retail price for the coin.
