A. In minting gold coins the deviation above or below true weight for 10 kg of coin must not exceed 5 gr.

B. Gold, silver, or bronze coins which have been mutilated or damaged by clipping, piercing, soldering, or in any other way unlawfully
injured, cease to be legal tender. Howewer, such coins of silver or bronze may be taken by the Mint at their face value, when the damage
has not appreciably diminished the weight of the coin, always subject to the approval of the Master of the Mint.

C. Coins which have weights lower than those here given must not be put back into circulation, once they have been received by the Public
Treasury.

D. Silver token coins which have a lower weight than 14’4 gr for 2 kronor, 7’2 gr for 1 krona, 4 8 gr for 50-öre pieces, 232 gr pieces for
25-öre pieces, and 139 gr for 10-öre pieces, must not be put back into circulation, once they have been received by the Public Treasury.
The Public Treasury accepts in payment unlimited amounts.
