Kingdom of Sweden

Kingdom of Sweden 1978, 5 (five) Kronor (SEK)

Germanic peoples have inhabited Sweden since prehistoric times, emerging into history as the Gotar and Svear tribes and contributing to the sea peoples known as the Vikings. In the 17th and early 18th century, the country expanded its territories to form the Swedish Empire and grew to be one of the great powers of Europe.
