1968 Swedish Coin

Hi I bought this for $1 and I was wondering what its value was. It looks to be BU. Oh yeah I kinda shredded the 2x2 that the coin was in and that had the name of the coin on it, so what is this coin called?

Any opinions on the coins value and grade, and what the coin is called?

 

50 Ore
Copper Nickel
Gustaf VI, Crowned monogram
Mintage 9,198,000
XF value .25, UNC value 1.25 from Krause 2007 edition

I have a few of the more current and some of the WWII era. One of my brothers spent a few years living in Sweden while working for Erickson.
Interesting country, everything is owned by the government, kinda of like where we are headed.

Nice coin.

Here's one of my favorites

 

Cool, thanks!

 

This looks like a true unc.

krause probably grossly undervalues this one but the
market is too thin to be certain. They start getting
more common around '66 and by '68 aren't really tough
but demand for moderns has been soaring.

 

Modern? Here is a 1998 1 Krona. Worth about .10

 

Sweden, another fine country with gorgeous coins....I don't have many myself, but I've always liked them, especially the earlier ones...
