| Obverse description | Draped and armored bust of the young King Christian IV facing right, wearing an ornate crown with floral finials and long flowing hair visible beneath. The king's attire features an elaborately decorated breastplate and a lace ruff collar, rendered in fine Renaissance style. The date 1596 appears in the lower field below the truncation. A circular beaded border frames the design, with the Latin legend distributed around the periphery. |
