Emergency Coinage of Carl XII. This is the first in a series of ten 1 Daler emergency coins (Goertz Dalers), nine of which were issued under Charles XII (Carl). Carl was a restless King with titles placing him as man at the helm of many principalities in Europe. He had dreams of expanding the Swedish Empire but after losing the Battle of Poltava (1709) with Russia he only managed to weaken the Swedish Empire and help create a Russian one. He was exiled to the Ottoman Empire and caused so much disruption there that they were happy to see him return home in 1714. In 1716 Carl XII invaded Norway and was repulsed, a second try was even less successful. Not a man to give up he attacked Norway again in 1718 but was shot dead at Fredriksten. He was succeeded by his sister Ulrika Eleonora, who issued the last of this series of Emergency Dalers with the theme of Hope.
This first Daler has a course reeding, the issue of 1716 has an oblique reeding while all the rest of the coins in the series has a crossed, two 'S' lined (sine wave) pattern.
