Obverse description Central field features a large crowned royal cypher 'C' for Carl XI, rendered in a bold calligraphic style with the royal crown positioned above. The circular Latin legend DOMINVS · PROTECTOR · MEVS · C surrounds the central device, reading 'The Lord, my protector.' The design is characteristic of Swedish Baroque coinage of the latter seventeenth century, with a simple yet regal composition emphasizing the monarch's monogram.
