| Reverse description | Three heraldic shields arranged in a triangular composition beneath the Crown of Sweden: the upper-left shield bears the Three Crowns of Sweden, the upper-right shield displays the Folkung Lion, and the lower central shield carries the Vasa sheaf arms, which divides the date at its sides. The entire device is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the Latin legend distributed around the outer circumference. The mintmark appears within the legend. The design reflects the dynastic and national symbolism characteristic of Gustav Vasa's monetary reform coinage. |
