Found a old, rare Swedish coin. What do you guys think?

Hey Numista. Few of you know I've been buying up pounds of foreign coins and I found a cool older coin with a high Numista rating at 83.

This: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces22202.html

It only had a mintage of 495,072 from 1845. What do you guys think about value? Anybody know anything cool about this coin? Thanks everyone!

EDIT: Trying to figure out how to get the photos from my phone onto here. So I'll have those up soon.

Here's an image from my Krause book, not too valuable of a coin but nice to get something that old especially in a bulk lot.

​Cool! I changed the original post to include photos. Thanks for the info!

The Numista rarity number is just a representation of how many members of this site have the coin marked in their online collection. If nobody has it, the rarity is 100, if one person does, it becomes 97, two people I believe is 95 and it drops from there. It doesn't necessarily reflect scarcity in the real world or value. But it is kind of interesting to be the only one on this website with a given coin!

Your coin is probably on the low end of Fine, by the way, in case you weren't sure about the grading yet.

​Thanks for the info. I am not that confident about grading my coins yet.

Personally I'd call it VG, but it's right on the line. Probably worth about $4 in that shape, although catalog values are often inflated a bit.
