Övrig information
Nödmynten tillverkades under åren 1715-19, då den svenska statskassan var tömd. Till en början påtrycktes morska deviser så som Publica fide, Wett och Wapen, när desperationen ökade ändrades det till romerska gudar, 1719 präglar man myntet med "Hoppet".
The collection is a study collection, accumulated during a lifetime. The collector operated within the field of oriental works of art. Due to his knowledge and sense of quality he was of great help to many of the members on Kinaklubben (The China Club) with members such as the Swedish Crown Prince Gustav Adolf, Emil Hultmark and Carl Kempe. The collection is mainly acquired in Sweden and London.
