| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Erik XIV came to the Swedish throne in 1560 with conspicuous dynastic ambitions, and his coinage policy reflected them directly. The mark denominations of his reign were issued partly to fund his prolonged and ultimately unsuccessful pursuit of Catherine Jagellonica — a contest he lost to John, his own brother, a rivalry that would eventually lead Erik to imprison John and later descend into the paranoid episodes that ended with his deposition in 1568.
Billon at .375 fine was a deliberate debasement from earlier Swedish silver standards, a fiscal compromise driven by the costs of the Northern Seven Years' War against Denmark, which began in 1563.
