| Obverse description | Central device consists of a large crowned royal cipher comprising the interlaced letter C enclosing the numeral 4, surmounted by a royal crown of elaborate form. The date 1647 is divided by the cipher, with '16' appearing to the left and '47' to the right. The field is plain and the overall design is characteristic of the bold, graphic hammered coinage of Christian IV of Denmark. The coin exhibits an irregular flan typical of hammered gold ducats of the period. |
