| Obverse description | Central field occupied by the elaborately interlaced royal cipher of Christian VI, formed by two intertwined Cs rendered in bold relief, surmounted by a royal crown with arched bands and orb finial. The monogram is executed in a refined Baroque style and fills the majority of the flan. The surrounding legend, separated from the central device by a plain inner border, reads D • G • REX • DAN • NORV • VAN • G •, abbreviating the king's titles as King of Denmark, Norway, the Vandals, and the Goths by the grace of God. The coin's milled edge is visible along the rim. |
