1 daler silvermynt, Avesta, Karl XII, 1710

This plate coin was made in Avesta using copper from Garpenberg in Dalarna. The lone star in the centre stamp is what tells us the origin of the copper. Furthermore, the cut-off corners near the corner stamps indicate that the weight of the coin has been adjusted.
