Obverse description Central field displays the crowned, interlaced royal cypher of King Christian VII in mirror monogram form, rendered in an elaborate baroque script. The monogram is surmounted by an ornate royal crown and supported below by the Danish royal coat of arms. A circular legend runs along the periphery, with a beaded inner ring separating it from the central device. The overall design reflects the refined engraving style characteristic of the Kongsberg Mint in the late 18th century.
