Hello all, I have the opportunity to buy the following Swedish Slate Money, but wanted to run it by you fine folks first. Here is what I'm looking at (and please forgive the shortcomings of my photography):

1742 Half Daler Km-PM-65, 353g 103mm x 90mm

1722 Two Daler KM-PM71, 1536g 191mm x 168mm

1731 Four Daler KM-PM-74, 2920g 224mm x 228mm
(I did not photograph the edge, but it is consistent with the others above)

I responded to your CoinTalk version of this post.

Neat stuff, if real, and I see nothing to suggest these are not?

Not an expert but I do admire these giant hunks of metal. Must have been a real bummer to carry them around though.

I think I'll need a bigger purse.

I'm no expert, but based on years of casually looking at these at shows and auctions, those look like excellent unsalvaged examples. None of them appear to have that Nicobar salvage corrosion. Maybe the 1 daler, but I don't think so from the picture. They all look good to me. I think the unsalvaged examples are much more desirable. Very cool. What do you know about them?
