| Obverse description | Facing bust of Queen Christina of Sweden depicted in a youthful, somewhat naive hammered style, wearing a lace ruff collar and elaborately curled hair. The effigy is centrally positioned within a beaded inner border. The encircling Latin legend reads CHRISTINA·D:G:SVE:GO:WA:Q:DE:RE:E:P:H:*, abbreviating her full royal title as Queen of the Swedes, Goths, and Wends. The portrait reflects the artistic conventions of mid-17th century Swedish hammered coinage, with a flat relief and irregular flan typical of the period. |
