| Reverse description | Crowned quartered shield bearing the combined arms of Sweden, Poland, and the Vasa dynasty, set within a circular field. The quarters display the Swedish three crowns, the Polish white eagle, and other dynastic devices, reflecting Sigismund III's dual royal claims. The date numerals appear in the lower portion of the field, flanking the shield. A continuous Latin legend encircling the shield proclaims his titles as King of Poland and Sweden. The overall design follows the heraldic conventions of late 16th-century northern European coinage. |
