Check your 1 krona coins very carefully when you get change back after buying things in Stockholm. There is a new forgery of this coin in circulation. And if you are lucky enough to find one, keep it, it could be quite rare and might even get to be a collectors item.
Now why would anybody make a forgery of a 1 kr coin? Well if you are very angry with the Swedish king and you have lot’s of money to insult him, then this is a perfect way to do it. On the coin it says our King is a man found out to have been a little to playful with young women, who he is not married to.. hence the new fake coin, what a revenge! Powerful games are not only stories you hear during the tour around the Stockholm castle, they are still going on in the Royal families even today!
