Sweden, Gustav IV Adolf (1792 – 1809). ½ Skilling 1803. Overstruck on a 1 Öre SM copper coin. Distinct traces of the undertype are visible beneath the later design, most notably around the legends and rims.

Such minting anomalies are extremely rare and highly sought after among specialists in early-19th-century Swedish copper issues. Rarity: XRR – extremely rare overstrike and double strike combination. Metal: Copper Weight: 14.2 g Diameter: 30.5 mm. Dark-brown patina, well-preserved for the type
