| Obverse description | Half-length armored effigy of King Christian V facing right, wearing a fur-lined royal mantle and the ribbon and badge of the Order of the Elephant suspended at his chest. The king holds a scepter in his right hand and the globus cruciger in his left, classical symbols of sovereign authority. The legend is divided by the figure and runs along the upper and lower rim in Latin. The portrait is rendered in high relief in the baroque manner characteristic of late seventeenth-century Danish coinage. |
