Aanvullende informatie

Eric XIV of Sweden seized Reval (present-day Tallinn) in 1561 when the city submitted to Swedish protection to escape the advancing forces of Ivan the Terrible during the Livonian War. The city retained considerable minting autonomy under Swedish overlordship, producing local denominations like this ferding — a coin with no equivalent in the Swedish domestic system — to meet regional commercial needs. The Type 2 designation, distinguished by its smooth rather than hatched shield, reflects a mid-production die revision that numismatists have used to narrow the striking window to 1567–68, just before Eric's deposition by his brother John in 1568.
