| Obverse description | Armored and crowned half-length effigy of King Erik XIV facing right, brandishing a sword over his right shoulder and holding a globus cruciger in his left hand, symbols of royal sovereignty. The royal bust is contained within an inner circle, with the Latin legend arranged in the outer annular field. The portrait is rendered in the elaborate Renaissance style characteristic of mid-sixteenth-century Swedish coinage, with fine detail in the royal armor and crown. |
