Reverse description A crowned heraldic shield displays the composite royal arms of Denmark-Norway, quartered to show the three Danish lions passant, the Norwegian lion rampant holding an axe, and the three Swedish crowns at the center. Surrounding the central escutcheon are the arms of the eight Danish provinces — Gothia, Wendland, Schleswig, Holstein, Stormarn, Dithmarschen, Oldenburg, and Delmenhorst — each set upon laurel decorations. A Latin legend encircles the entire composition within a beaded border, and the date appears at the bottom divided by the mint master's initials HCM.
