| Obverse description | Central field occupied by a Swedish royal crown rendered in relief with horizontal ribbed banding, positioned prominently within a plain inner field. A circular Latin legend surrounds the crown, reading R.S.T.R.Gs. CONTORS POLLET, the abbreviated inscription referencing the Rikets Ständers Riksgälds Kontor (Parliamentary National Debt Office). The lettering is raised and set close to the rim, with no additional ornamental devices. The overall design is of a utilitarian character consistent with emergency token coinage of the late eighteenth century. |
