Runestone at Viking Line terminal in Stockholm[edit]

This runestone can be found at the Viking Line terminal in Stockholm. Is it a genuine historical runestone or a reconstruction? JIP | Talk 11:05, 14 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It's modern - all explained here. Mikenorton (talk) 11:32, 14 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I suspected as much. A real one wouldn't look so good, if left outside for a thousand years. Specifically, the paint would be absent or at least chipped and/or faded. SinisterLefty (talk) 21:45, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
