How to resist :)

How can you resist buying two coins when they are cheap.
And at a reasonable and affordable price.
Oh yes, they are not big but they are an addition to my collection.
And both are in protective plastic.
I didn't even know I was collecting Swedish öre.
I only had one Swedish öre coin, maybe two I don't remember anymore.
But when I came across 25 öre I had to buy them because of the "crazy" number two.I liked that number two and decided to buy it.
It's important that the collection grows.
In the meantime, I've been selling off non-silver coins.
They're starting to take up a lot of space :)I should get it sorted, but it's a lot of work
It will probably happen in the winter when I have more free time

Swede and Swiss silver.
The 25 Ore is only 0.400 huh? I thought it was higher than that.
Thanks for sharing these silver coins @markone85
