| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays the Three Crowns of Sweden arranged in a triangular formation, accompanied by five rosettes distributed across the field. The legend reads C R S, an abbreviation for Christina Regina Sueciae (Queen Christina of Sweden), rendered in Latin characters. The design is characteristic of the early Swedish copper coinage of the 1630s, with the royal cipher and national symbols emphasized in a simple, boldly struck composition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Sweden's copper coinage explosion of the 1630s was a direct consequence of the Crown's need to monetize its vast domestic copper reserves — particularly from the Falun mine in Dalarna, then the largest copper producer in Europe. Flooding the economy with low-denomination copper pieces was deliberate policy, not necessity born of silver shortage. Kristina was four years old when this type was first struck; the regency government of Axel Oxenstierna made the monetary decisions.
The Falun mine at peak output supplied roughly two-thirds of the world's copper during this decade.
