This used 1,000 Swedish krone banknote is a standard circulation banknote introduced by the Sveriges Riksbank in 1989. It is a brown, green, blue, red, orange, and purple banknote that bears the signatures of Chairman Erik Asbrink and Governor Bengt Dennis and measures 160 mm x 82 mm. Its obverse side shows rings that symbolize the atmospheric phenomenon of 20 April 1536, a microprinted quote by King Gustav Vasa saying “SCRIPTURAM IN PROPRIA HABEANT LINGUA” (Let them have the holy scripture in their own language), a parhelion painting of Stockholm, and a portrait of King Gustav Vasa by Cornelius Arentz. Its reverse side depicts a scene from the 1555 book “Historia de Gentibus Septentrionalibus” (History of the Northern People) by Olaus Magnus that shows farmers with scythes gathering and threshing grain. Security features include a solid security thread and a watermark of King Gustav Vasa. The banknote was demonetized in 2014.
