| Obverse description | Draped and armored right-facing effigy of King Frederik IV, wearing the pendant of the Order of the Elephant suspended at the breast. The portrait is rendered in high relief with careful attention to the royal regalia and drapery folds. A Latin legend encircles the bust within the coin's field, identifying the king by name and titles. |

| Reverse description | An elaborate and deeply symbolic composition centered on the radiant triangle of Jehovah, bearing three Hebrew characters, set at the center of the field. Three crowned, double royal cyphers in mirror monogram form are disposed at each vertex of the triangle within a triangular frame. Alternating with these, three oval shields bearing the arms of Denmark, Sweden, and Norway are arranged in an inverted triangular frame, positioned above each side of the central radiant triangle. The date 1699 appears in the lower portion of the field, divided by a heart-shaped mintmark flanked by floral ornaments. The royal motto fills the remaining spaces between the crowns. |
