| Obverse description | Crowned royal cypher of Eric XIV (E surmounted by a crown) positioned centrally in the field, with the date divided on either side of the monogram, reading '6' to the left and 'Z' (a period numeral variant for '2') to the right, indicating the year 1562. The lettering is rendered in a crude Gothic style typical of hammered coinage of the Baltic region in the sixteenth century. The overall strike is irregular, consistent with hand-hammered production at the Reval city mint. |
