1920 Sweden Gold 5 Kronor King Gustaf Coin NGC MS 65

 

Enhance your world gold collection with the 1920 Sweden Gold 5 Kronor, certified MS 65 by NGC. Struck in .900 fine gold with an actual gold weight (AGW) of 0.0648 troy ounces, this coin represents both Swedish heritage and European numismatic history. Its superb grade ensures sharp details, strong luster, and remarkable eye appeal for a coin over a century old.

The Swedish Kronor gold coinage series began in the late 19th century, tied to the Scandinavian Monetary Union (1873–1914), which linked Sweden, Denmark, and Norway under a common gold standard. Although the Union dissolved during World War I, Sweden continued issuing gold coins like the 5 Kronor well into the 20th century.

The obverse of this 1920 issue features King Gustaf V of Sweden, who reigned from 1907 to 1950 and guided the nation through both world wars while maintaining its neutrality. The reverse displays the ornate Swedish coat of arms, crowned and surrounded by symbols of the kingdom’s long history and sovereignty.

Coins of this era were produced in limited quantities and circulated primarily within Sweden, making high-grade certified survivors particularly scarce today.
