10 öre, Stockholm, Gustaf VI Adolf, 1972

In 1962, the 10-örring starts to be struck in copper-nickel instead of silver. This is Gustav VI Adolf's second type of 10-öre coin and it was struck between 1962 and 1973. On the obverse (front), we see the king's crowned name cipher G VI A together with the year of minting and on the reverse, the denomination 10 öre, SVERIGE and Saint Erik, which tells us that the coin was minted in Stockholm and U for the Governor of the Central Bank, Bengt Ulvfot.
