| Comments |
This is the highest denomination Sweden issued during the period and was not intended for everyday retail use. The 1000 kronor note circulated primarily in interbank transfers and large commercial transactions, meaning individual specimens often retain relatively low wear — not from hoarding, but from the nature of the transactions they facilitated.
Pick 60 is the last of the classic Riksbank designs before the major security overhaul of the mid-1990s introduced metallic threads and more sophisticated anti-counterfeiting measures. By the time the series was withdrawn, pressure from organized counterfeiters had accelerated the redesign timeline considerably.
