1 Öre Karl XI / Karl XII

This coin: 'https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces35670.html'; with the incorrect years, has the correct years of this coin:' https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces67734.html';.
In the Krause publications 'Standard Catalog of World Coins 1701-1800 (page 1318) & 1601-1700 (page 1520)' (KM# 250a) the coin's year begins at 1686, which is totally incorrect. It is stated that the coins is minted under the ruler Karl XII which would be correct if the years began at 1697. Karl XI's 1 Öre coins were minted from 1660 to 1697 and Karl XII's 1 Öre coins from 1697 to 1717.

Please correct this invalid information. One king can not mint the coins of the predecessor king...
While you are probably right (I will leave that for referee to check) I must correct that misconception at the end. It was not uncommon for a king to mint coins of his predecessor, either because mints have already done that beforehand, or had stocked supplies of dies, or it was a matter of simply honoring the dead one.

And after all, kings usually could do whatever they wished...
