Riksens Ständers Wäxel-Banco — the precursor to the Riksbank — issued these notes during one of the more chaotic episodes in Swedish monetary history. The Seven Years' War had driven Sweden to massively expand paper money supply, and by the early 1760s the resulting inflation had become severe enough to trigger a full political crisis. The so-called "cap and hat" factional struggle in the Riksdag was, in substantial part, a fight over whether to deflate the currency or continue printing. The deflationary faction ultimately won, and a brutal contraction followed.
The denomination here is nominal — "950 Daler Kopparmynt" is the printed base, with actual values completed by hand at time of issue. That flexibility was deliberate, not a makeshift solution.
