- wingerlang 10y agoI haven't really thought about this before, but that coin might be the biggest coin I know of. And the 10 krona is the smallest one compared to its value (smallest coin, highest value within the Swedish coins) that I know of anyway.
- ralfd 10y agoThe old 5 Deutsche Mark coin (I wonder if I have one somewhere hidden in a shelf?) is larger with 29,00 mm. The 5 Euro coin (a collectors item and only legal tender in Germany) is smaller with 27,25 mm.
- wingerlang 10y agoI meant it as in that the coin itself has the highest value of all Swedish coins, but it is the smallest size of them.
