Reverse description Elaborately quartered crowned coat of arms at center, featuring the lions and hearts of Denmark, the lion of Norway, and various subsidiary shields for the Wends, Goths, Schleswig, Holstein, Stormarn, and Ditmarschen, all set within an ornate Baroque cartouche with foliate mantling. Eight smaller roundels bearing individual heraldic charges surround the central shield, each separated by decorative laurel and acanthus scrollwork. A large royal crown surmounts the entire achievement. The date 16–93 appears divided at the lower left and right of the central shield, with the mintmaster's initials HCM below. The circumferential legend PIETATE·ET·IUSTITIA runs along the border.
