| Obverse description | Central field bears the crowned royal cypher of Eric XIV — a large Gothic letter 'E' — flanked by the last two digits of the regnal year, with '6' to the left and '5' to the right, together forming the date (15)65. A small crown surmounts the monogram. The surrounding circular legend in Latin, separated by pellet stops, reads along the periphery of the coin. The die is struck on an irregular flan typical of hammered billon coinage of the period. |
