Swedish krona : ウィキペディア英語版 | Swedish krona
The krona (plural: ''kronor''; sign: kr; code: SEK) has been the currency of Sweden since 1873. Both the ISO code "SEK" and currency sign "kr" are in common use; the former precedes or follows the value, the latter usually follows it but, especially in the past, it sometimes preceded the value. In English, the currency is sometimes referred to as the Swedish crown, since ''krona'' literally means crown in Swedish. The Swedish krona was the 11th most traded currency in the world by value in April 2013.〔().〕 One krona is subdivided into 100 ''öre'' (singular and plural; when referring to the currency unit itself, however, the plural definite form is ''ören''). However, all öre coins have been discontinued as of 30 September 2010.〔Sveriges Riksbank. (Valid coins )." Accessed 25 Feb 2011.〕 Goods can still be priced in ''öre'', but all sums are rounded to the nearest krona when paying with cash. == History == The introduction of the krona, which replaced at par the riksdaler, was a result of the Scandinavian Monetary Union, which came into effect in 1873 and lasted until World War I. The parties to the union were the Scandinavian countries, where the name was ''krona'' in Sweden and ''krone'' in Denmark and Norway, which in English literally means "crown". The three currencies were on the gold standard, with the krona/krone defined as of a kilogram of pure gold. After dissolution of the monetary union, Sweden, Denmark, and Norway all decided to keep the names of their respective and now separate currencies.
