Beschrijving keerzijde A crowned oval shield bearing the rampant Norwegian lion passant, armed with a battle-axe and facing left, is superimposed at the centre of an ornate cross. The shield is surmounted by a royal crown, with the arms of the cross extending to the periphery. The encircling Latin legend records the remaining royal titles and the date. The mintmaster's initials appear in the lower field, divided by the lower arm of the cross. An inner beaded ring frames the entire design.

Aanvullende informatie

Frederik III's reign saw Norway's mint at Christiania operating under chronic supply pressure — silver flows from the Kongsberg mines were inconsistent throughout the 1660s, and the half speciedaler series of this period reflects that instability in both mintage volume and striking quality. The king had only recently consolidated absolute monarchy in Denmark-Norway through the hereditary revolution of 1660, and the coinage program of the following years was partly an exercise in projecting royal authority through a currency that hadn't always looked the part.

The three-year window of this type is narrow enough that individual die marriages are traceable across the Rønning and Skaare references.
