| Obverse description | Armored and crowned half-length effigy of King Gustav Vasa facing right, brandishing a raised sword in his right hand and holding a globus cruciger in his left, symbolizing royal sovereignty over Sweden. The bust is enclosed within a laurel wreath inner circle, with the royal legend arranged in the surrounding field. The portraiture reflects the Renaissance engraving style characteristic of Swedish hammered coinage of the mid-sixteenth century, with attention to the king's armor detailing and crown form. |
