| Aanvullende informatie |
Sweden's postwar silver coinage faced a slow death by inflation. The 2 Kronor denomination had carried .800 fine silver through the interwar years, but the 1952 reform slashed silver content to .400 — a pragmatic response to rising metal prices that effectively halved the intrinsic value overnight. Gustaf VI Adolf, who ascended in 1950, never saw a full-weight silver 2 Kronor struck in his name. The .400 standard itself survived only until 1966, when the denomination was discontinued entirely ahead of Sweden's decimalization and currency reform of 1971.
