| Reverse description | A powerful allegorical composition depicts an armoured arm issuing from a cloud at the left, brandishing a sword to sever an open hand that reaches toward the Royal Crown; the scene is partially enclosed within a beaded circle. The Latin motto SOLI DEO GLORIA ('Glory to God alone') appears in the outer legend, together with the commemorative date reference 'ii Feb', alluding to the decisive event of 2 February 1659 during the Swedish siege of Copenhagen. |
