4 Rundstück - Carl XI Without inner reverse circle

Narva's civic coinage authority was a product of Swedish imperial administration — the city operated under Charles XI, whose minority government had only recently assumed direct control following the regency period that ended in 1672. This piece predates that transition by a year, placing it squarely in the contested administrative moment before the young king consolidated personal rule. The missing inner reverse circle distinguishes it from the standard type and is catalogued separately by Fedorov precisely because the omission appears to reflect a die preparation decision rather than wear or damage.
