| Reverse description | Right-facing draped bust of the late King Christian V, depicted in a similar Baroque portrait style with a long curled wig and armoured dress, serving as a dynastic tribute to the preceding monarch on this coronation commemorative. The bust is rendered in high relief, facing right, with elaborate drapery at the truncation. The surrounding Latin legend reads CHRIST · V · D · G · DAN · N · V · G · REX ·, identifying Christian V by name and title. A continuous beaded border frames the design at the rim. The pairing of the two royal effigies on obverse and reverse underscores the dynastic continuity commemorated by this issue. |
