The article is dedicated to certain aspects of money circulation related to the expansion of the Swedish Kingdom in the Baltic states in the 17th century. Being compatible in design with the coins of Rzeczpospolita, but having lower standard of fineness and (or) weight, the denominations were actively put into circulation in the Baltic domains of Sweden as well as in Rzeczpospolita. The author analyzes the iconography if coins, describes technology of production, systematizes the variants of punches of crowns, states of arms, monograms and gerbes, which were used in the production of dies for solids.
