| Obverse description | Bare-headed effigy of King Christian VIII facing right, rendered in high relief with finely detailed portraiture characteristic of the period. The king's name and royal titles appear in the surrounding legend in Latin. The date 1842 is positioned below the portrait, bisected by a five-pointed star dividing the numerals '18' and '42'. The field is smooth, and the legend is separated from the effigy by a clear inner border. |
