Overview

The reverse features the large numeral '5' surrounded by the text 'SVERIGE ORE'. It is a circular bronze coin with a plain edge.

Historical significance

This coin was part of the standard circulation during the reign of King Gustaf VI Adolf. The Öre sub-unit was eventually phased out due to inflation, and the 5 Öre coin was demonetized in 1985.

Estimated value

$0.25 - $2.00 USD (Commonly found in circulated condition)

Care & preservation

Avoid cleaning or polishing, as this removes the natural patina and lowers numismatic value. Store in a cool, dry place in a PVC-free coin holder to prevent corrosion and 'green rot' (verdigris).
