Riksens Ständers Banco — the precursor to Sveriges Riksbank — had already pioneered European paper money in 1661 under Johan Palmstruch, and by the 1747–1760 series the institution was deep into a second experiment with credit notes that would end badly. The Riksdag authorized successive expansions of note circulation through this period, and values were entered by hand rather than pre-printed, a practical concession to a bank issuing across a wide range of denominations without committing to separate printed runs for each.
The scheme collapsed into the "Age of Liberty" monetary crisis: over-issuance against inadequate silver reserves forced a humiliating devaluation in 1766, and redemption rates were set well below face value. Notes from this series that survived were largely surrendered during that settlement.
