1898 SWEDEN Nice Silver "TWO KRONOR" King OSCAR II Extremely Low Mintage 141,391
This is a very lightly used, extremely low mintage, silver "Two Kronor" from Sweden. It was struck at the Stockholm mint in 1898 during the reign of Oscar II who ruled as King of Sweden from 1872 until his death on December 8, 1907 and as King of Norway from 1872 until Norway separated peacefully from Sweden on October 26, 1905. Sweden struck this "older portrait" type of silver Two Krona with eight different dates between 1890 and 1904. Weight: 14.98 Grams, 31 Millimeters, .800 Silver. Mintage: 141,391. "The Modern Coinage of Sweden" by Scott Eric Cordry. #101 5. "Standard Catalog of World Coins" (1801-1900) by Krause-Mishler. #76 1.

The Coin: A very presentable example, it was the medium of a number of exchanges and shows some very light wear on the high spots and a few of the normal marks and scratches. I believe it has been lightly cleaned, long ago. I grade it Very Fine, BUT, as grading is subjective, please see the pictures and judge for yourself.
