| Additional information |
Issued to mark Carl XVI Gustaf's 50th birthday, this coin was part of a broader Riksbank commemorative program that had grown increasingly prolific through the 1990s. Sweden's royal commemoratives of this decade were struck in relatively modest quantities compared to earlier jubilee issues, and the .925 silver specification — slightly below the .999 fineness increasingly favored by other Scandinavian mints at the time — reflects a production standard carried over from earlier in the series rather than any deliberate monetary consideration.
