| Additional information |
Hastabergets Skidflygarklubb is the ski flying club based at Hastaberget in Filipstad, Sweden — ski flying being the extreme-distance variant of ski jumping, where athletes reach speeds exceeding 100 km/h on hills engineered for flights beyond 100 metres. Local Swedish clubs occasionally issued token or medal coinage during the 1980s tied to competitions or club anniversaries, and this bronze piece almost certainly falls into that category. The denomination of 20 Kronor is nominal; these were not legal tender and circulated, if at all, within a very specific community context.
