| 背面描述 | Side elevation view of the Fortress of Christiansborg on the Gold Coast (Guinea) with a flying Danish banner, enclosed within a circular border. The primary legend appears above the circle and continues around the outer rim, identifying the fortress and its colonial location. The date is presented in the exergue below the central design, flanked by heart-shaped Copenhagen mint marks. Two distinct bust varieties are known: a younger bust for the 1708 issue and an older bust for the 1725 issue. |

The "GUINEA" in the legend marks this as a coin struck from gold sourced through Denmark's West African trading post at Christiansborg Castle on the Gold Coast — present-day Accra. The Danish presence there, established in the 1660s under the Danish Africa Company, was always precarious, and the fort changed hands repeatedly. Incorporating the provenance directly into the legend was a deliberate assertion of Danish commercial reach at a time when the trade was under sustained pressure from Dutch and English competition.
Frederik IV's reign coincided with the Great Northern War, which strained Danish finances considerably. Guinea gold ducats of this period served diplomatic and mercantile functions as much as monetary ones.
