| Reverse description | The reverse of this copper plate money is plain and unadorned, presenting the raw hammered copper surface of the planchet without any applied stamps or inscriptions, as was standard practice for Swedish plåtmynt of this period. The surface shows the characteristic texture and patination of aged copper, with slight convexity resulting from the casting and stamping process. |
