In June this year, a number of coins were discovered in circulation in Sweden with an altered text.

Instead of the usual “Carl XVI Gustaf Sveriges Konung” ('Carl XVI Gustaf Sweden’s King'), the text written around the image of the King's head on each coin read “Vår horkarl till Kung”, which translates roughly into English as “Our whorer of a King”.

On the flip side, the coins were normal and seemingly untouched. Experts have explained that the forgery seems professionally done.
