    I think it's from the Netherlands. But I'm not sure.

    It's a Swedish 1/2 Skilling of Gustaf IV Adolph 1792-1809.
    Here's a 1/2 skilling from the same year.

    I have that coin type , year 1809. An overstrike over

    An 18th century 1 Ore. The same rim error appears also on my coin. In Krause it is KM # 390.

    Krause also says that if you can see the date on the 1 ore underneath,it is worth 50-100% more so get out you magnifying glass.:eek:

    My Krause catalog has it like this:
    VG $2 Fine $5 VF $10 XF $37.50...so probably $5-10
