Obverse description A horse passant to the right occupies the central field, rendered in the angular, stylized manner characteristic of Viking-age Danish coinage. Above the horse's back, a small trefoil or pellet ornament is visible, and a diagonal line — likely a simplified spear or sceptre — extends across the field. The design is enclosed within a beaded border, around which the Latin royal legend runs in Anglo-Scandinavian letter forms.
