In the eighteen century 1, 2, 5, 10, 25 and 50 öre, 1,
2, 10 and 20 kronor coins were introduced, with the 1, 2 and 5 öre in bronze, the 10,
25 and 50 öre and 1 and 2 kronor in silver and the 5, 10 and 20 kronor in gold.
During World War I,
iron replaced bronze . Nickel-bronze replaced silver in the 10, 25 and 50 öre .
Suring World War II The nickel-bronze 10, 25 and 50 öre were again issued between 1940 and
1947. In 1942, iron again replaced bronze and the silver content of
the other coins was reduced. In the sixties cupro-nickel replaced silver in the 10, 25
and 50 öre coins, with the 2 kronor following suit and the 1 krona
switching to cupro-nickel-clad copper . 5
kronor silver coins were produced in fifties and seventies with designs similar
to contemporary 1 and 2 kronor coins.
In the seventies the size of
the 5 öre coin was reduced. and a new smaller 5 kronor coin was introduced,
struck in cupro-nickel-clad nickel. In 1991, aluminium-brass 10 kronor coins and bronze coloured 50 öre coins were issued.
By tradition, coins less than 1 krona do not bear the monarch's effigy, whilst
those of 1 krona and above do (the current 5 kronor coin being the only
exception). The royal motto of the monarch is also inscribed on many of the
coins.
