Hi everyone!
Another international roadgeek here, from the cold land of Volvos and Vikings. Of particular interest to me is road signage, but I also enjoy discussing other stuff.
Well met! :)
Welcome to the forums! :sombrero:

My mom owned a Volvo when I was growing up. Built like a tank! ;)
Welcome to the board!
Welcome!
I know this is a road forum, but I collect coins, and I am interested in how other currencies work.
The coins I have from Sweden that I have are:
5 öre, 1898
5 öre, 1953
1 krona, 1978
1 krona, 2003
(I have no bills from Sweden.)

I am also a coin collector, but all I have from Sweden is 1 öre, 1967. Spare a krona?
Finally made it over here, eh? ;) (assuming you're the riiga I know from ST)
Thanks everyone for the warm welcome!

The 5 öre coin from 1898 might be worth a bit. Not sure about the 5 öre from 1953. The 1 krona coins are worth about 1 krona, seeing how both are still in use. In a few years though, we'll be replacing them with new completely new coins, so they'll probably increase in value then. If you're interested you can read more about the new coins here (http://www.riksbank.se/en/Notes-and-coins/New-notes-and-coins1/The-new-coins1/).
