| Beschrijving voorzijde | Within a beaded inner circle, the crowned Norwegian lion rampant facing left, holding a halberd (axe) in its forepaws, occupying the central field. The surrounding legend, separated from the inner circle by a dotted border, reads CHRISTIAN 5 D G REX, identifying the monarch as Christian V, by the grace of God, King. The design is rendered in a bold, somewhat crude style typical of small billon coinage of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Christian V inherited the Danish-Norwegian throne in 1670, the same year this skilling was struck, succeeding Frederick III who had engineered the transition to absolute hereditary monarchy just a decade earlier. The Norwegian mint at Christiania operated intermittently under tight crown control, and small billon issues like this one circulated alongside a chaotic mix of older domestic and foreign copper that plagued everyday commerce throughout the latter half of the seventeenth century.
The Rønning and Skaare references diverge slightly on die classifications for this type, suggesting multiple working dies were employed across a compressed striking period.
