Obverse description Draped bust of Queen Christina of Sweden facing left, her hair elaborately dressed and falling in curls, wearing a lace-trimmed bodice. The effigy is rendered in the baroque hammered style characteristic of mid-17th century Baltic coinage. The bust is contained within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding Latin legend reads CHRISTINA · D : G : SVEC · GOTH · VAND . Q · REGINA ·, proclaiming her royal titles, running clockwise between the beaded border and the coin's rim.
