Reverse description A second-type closed royal crown is displayed prominently in the upper field, surmounting the initials R.F.P. (Regna Firmat Pietas — 'Piety strengthens the realms'), all contained within a pearled inner circle. A Latin legend encircles the outer field, enumerating the king's titles as ruler of Denmark, Norway, the Wends, and the Goths. A clover-leaf mintmark for the Copenhagen Mint appears at the commencement of the legend, with the date of issue positioned at its conclusion.
