Is it coin alignment or medal alignment? The 1991 coin aligment issue is worth $30 in VF, the medal alignment issue is not worth more than a dollar or so. According to Krause that is. In the SIEG catalog (the most used catalog in nordic countries for nordic coins) there is no distinction between coin and medal alignment, and only UNC 1991 10 Kronor coins are valued.
Both are coins; it's just the alignments or orientations that would be different here. "Medal" alignment is how modern coins are aligned in pretty much all of Europe (↑↑). That is, if you look at a coin in album and then turn the page, the other side is displayed normally. With "coin" alignment (↑↓) it would be upside down. Christian
