Reverse description Plain square klippe reverse with stark, utilitarian design typical of early Swedish copper coinage. At upper left, the fractional denomination '1/2' is boldly incised. At center, a large diagonal stroke separates the denomination numeral from the value indicator, alongside the numeral '4' denoting the öre subdivision, forming the inscription '1/2 ÖR Z4' indicating half an öre. The field is largely plain and deeply textured with the rough surface characteristic of hammered copper klippe coinage. Minor patination and porosity are visible across the flan.
