| Beschrijving voorzijde | Typical Swedish copper plate money (plåtmynt) format: four corner stamps each bearing a crowned royal cypher with the Latin legend CAROLUS·XII·D:G:SVECO:GOT:WAN:REX encircling the date within a beaded border. A central stamp displays the denomination '2 DALER Sölff:Mÿf' in the field. An additional counterstamp, applied in 1718, reads '3 DALER S M' with the date 1718, reflecting the revaluation of the plate. The large rectangular copper planchet bears the characteristic convex bowing and surface texture inherent to cast and hammered Swedish plate money of the early eighteenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Sweden's emergency copper plate money — the klippings and plåtmynt — existed because the country had almost no domestic silver supply, forcing the Crown to monetize its abundant copper reserves. The 3 Daler plates were the workhorse denomination of this system, physically enormous slabs that circulated by weight rather than by the fiction of face value. By 1710, Charles XII was deep in the catastrophic aftermath of Poltava, and military expenditure had so strained the treasury that these plates were increasingly overvalued relative to their copper content.
Dies for this issue were produced at the Avesta mint, the sole facility equipped to strike pieces of this mass.
