| Beschrijving keerzijde | Full-length figure of Christ the Saviour standing facing, robed and draped, his right hand raised in benediction and his left hand holding an orb topped with a cross. A radiant halo of diverging rays crowns his head. The date (e.g. 1610) is divided across the field to either side of the figure. The circumferential Latin legend, arranged in a continuous band, reads IEHOVAH · SOLATVM · MEVM · SALVATOR · MVNDI · SALVA NOS, invoking God as comfort and the Saviour of the World. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Karl IX never held the title of king in the conventional sense until 1604, having governed as regent for nearly a decade while systematically dismantling the political power of his nephew Sigismund — a Catholic king of Poland who refused to abandon his claim to the Swedish throne. The riksdaler coinage issued under Karl was partly a statement of financial legitimacy for a ruler whose hold on power depended on Protestant nobility and a functioning war economy.
Sweden was already entangled in conflicts that would define the next half-century, and Karl died in 1611 with wars against Denmark, Russia, and Poland all running simultaneously — leaving the mess to a sixteen-year-old Gustav II Adolf.
