| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate and long-wigged bust of King Frederik III facing right, rendered in the bold, somewhat crude style characteristic of mid-17th-century Danish hammered gold coinage. The effigy fills the central field with flowing curls of the periwig extending to the coin's lower edge. A circular Latin legend surrounds the bust, separated by pellet stops, reading FRIDERIC : III : D : G : REX : DAN : NOR, attesting to the king's royal title by the grace of God over Denmark and Norway. The inner border is defined by a beaded or toothed rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederik III used gold ducats partly as diplomatic instruments — presented as gifts to foreign envoys and allied courts where the internationally recognized ducat standard carried more weight than Danish riksdaler coinage. The 1664 issue falls during the years immediately following the 1660–61 constitutional revolution, in which Frederik III leveraged bourgeois and clergy support against the nobility to establish hereditary absolute monarchy in Denmark, consolidating royal authority that this very coinage literally embodied.
Fr#104 is notably scarce in any condition, consistent with the limited striking volumes typical of Danish gold ducat production in this decade.
