| Obverse description | Full-length crowned figure of King Sigismund III Vasa standing facing, attired in royal robes and armour, holding a sceptre or orb in his right hand; the figure is rendered in the crude hammered style characteristic of late 16th-century Swedish coinage. A beaded inner circle frames the central device. The circumferential Latin legend SIGIS · D · G · SVE · & · POL · REX, abbreviated for Sigismund Dei Gratia Rex Sveciae et Poloniae, runs around the border, interrupted by the date numerals. |
