| Obverse description | Bare-headed right-facing bust of King Carl XIII occupies the central field, rendered in high relief with finely detailed flowing hair. The portrait is executed in a refined neoclassical style characteristic of early nineteenth-century Swedish coinage. A circular legend surrounds the effigy, reading CARL XIII SV. NORR. G. OCH V. KONUNG, identifying the king as ruler of Sweden, Norway, the Goths and the Wends. The legend is set in Latin capitals close to the milled border. The field is smooth and unadorned, allowing the portrait to dominate the design. |
