| Reverse description | The central field displays two crossed mining picks or hammers, tools emblematic of the Säter mining district and its copper-producing region, surmounted by a small crown at the crossing point and flanked by decorative elements. The tools are rendered diagonally in saltire arrangement within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding legend reads MONETA NOVA CVPR EDALARE, indicating this is a new copper coin of the Dalecarlia (Dalarna) region, with the inscription running clockwise in Latin capitals separated by stops. The reverse design strongly reflects the industrial and regional character of the Säter mint, established to produce copper coinage from local ore. |
