Obverse description Central device consisting of a large crowned royal cypher 'G III' — the bold Gothic initial 'G' dominating the field with the Roman numeral 'III' incuse within its body — surmounted by an ornate royal crown rendered in high relief. The curved legend FADERNESLANDET· GIII arcs along the upper periphery, reading 'For the Fatherland' in Swedish, with pellet stops separating the elements. The coin's milled edge is visible at the rim, and the flat field surrounding the cypher is unadorned, lending prominence to the central motif.
