| Aanvullende informatie |
Struck during one of the most unstable moments in sixteenth-century Swedish history, this klippa was produced while Erik XIV was imprisoned following the coup led by his brother Johan III in September 1568. Klippingar of this period were emergency issues, their square or irregular form a direct consequence of the need to produce high-value silver coinage rapidly without the infrastructure for proper round flans.
The regency attribution to both Johan III and Karl IX reflects the political balancing act of the coup's immediate aftermath, before Johan's formal coronation in 1569.
