Obverse description Frontal enthroned effigy of King Christian II, crowned and robed, holding a globus cruciger in the right hand and a sceptre in the left, set within a beaded inner circle. The king is depicted in a highly stylised late-Gothic manner, with the crown bearing an aureole or radiate nimbus above the head, characteristic of Type 1. A circular Latin legend in uncial characters surrounds the inner circle, reading CHRISTIERN DE GR REX DACIE. The flan is irregular, consistent with hand-hammered production.
