| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a crowned coat of arms featuring the quartered royal Danish arms with an inescutcheon at center, all within a beaded inner circle. The shield is surmounted by a crown of elaborate design, rendered in the Gothic heraldic style typical of early sixteenth-century hammered silver. The surrounding legend in uncial Latin characters runs along the outer field, with the date appearing at the conclusion of the inscription, rendered in the distinctive period notation with the numeral Z used for the digit 3. The composition is consistent with the regal proclamation style used at the Malmö mint under Christian II. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Christian II was driven from Denmark in 1523 — the very year this coin was struck — when a coalition of nobility and clergy backed his uncle Frederick's claim to the throne. He fled to the Netherlands, and Malmö's mint, which had been among his more active production centers, effectively ceased striking coins in his name as the revolt succeeded. Pieces dated 1523 from Malmö thus represent the collapse of a reign rather than its routine operation.
Christian II later attempted reconquest in 1531, was captured, and died in captivity in 1559 after 27 years imprisoned.
