| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central device consisting of the Swedish royal coat of arms — an orb bearing three crowns arranged in heraldic fashion — surmounted by a royal crown, all enclosed within a laurel and palm wreath tied at the base. Below the wreath, a cartouche or scroll bears the date of issue. The circumferential legend reads ÖSTRA SILFBERGET I KOPPARERGS LÄN, referencing the Östra Silver Mine in Kopparbergs Province, whose output funded the striking of this issue. The overall composition is finely engraved and boldly struck. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
These ducats were struck to pay shareholders of the Östra silverberget mining company in Salberget, a practice known as Bergwerksdukat — corporate dividends paid in coin rather than paper. Adolf Fredrik's reign saw renewed royal interest in rationalizing Swedish mine ownership, and the Salberget silver mines were among the properties brought under closer crown scrutiny during the early 1750s. The specific authorization to strike these pieces in the king's name gave them a quasi-official character that ordinary company scrip lacked.
Stockholm Mint production of this type was limited to the four-year window the mines operated under these particular arrangements.
