| Beschrijving voorzijde | Right-facing draped bust of King Christian V within a beaded inner circle. A continuous Latin legend encircles the effigy, identifying the monarch by name and divine authority. The portrait is rendered in the baroque style typical of late 17th-century Scandinavian coinage, with naturalistic facial features and flowing drapery visible at the shoulder. The field between the bust and the beaded border is largely open, lending emphasis to the royal effigy. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Christian V died in August 1699, making this one of the final issues struck under his reign — he had ruled Denmark-Norway since 1670 and spent much of that time waging expensive, largely unsuccessful wars against Sweden. Norway operated no independent mint at this period; these coins were struck at Copenhagen.
The mark denomination itself was a unit of account more than a practical currency, and its silver content was frequently debased across the seventeenth century as war financing took its toll on the Danish-Norwegian treasury.
