| Beschrijving keerzijde | The Swedish royal crown is displayed at top center, surmounting a triangular arrangement of three heraldic shields: at upper left, the Three Crowns of Sweden; at upper right, the Folkung Lion; and at lower center, the Vasa sheaf arms, with the date split to either side of the lower shield. The entire device is contained within a double circular border, the inner ring being a plain single line and the outer ring a laurel wreath circlet, with the Latin scriptural legend occupying the outermost margin. A mintmaster's mark appears within the legend. The composition is a fine example of Renaissance heraldic coin design as practiced in sixteenth-century Sweden. |

Gustav Vasa established the Svartsjö mint in the 1540s as part of a broader effort to bring Sweden's wildly inconsistent coinage under royal control — earlier in his reign, multiple competing mints had produced silver of radically varying fineness. The .500 standard here reflects that ongoing struggle rather than a settled policy; Swedish silver coinage of this decade fluctuated considerably as the crown balanced military expenditure against monetary credibility.
Bust type III distinguishes this from earlier issues of the same denomination and is the product of a die revision, not a mint change. MB#67,3 is the specific reference for this subtype within the Hammarlund-Myrberg corpus.
