Beschrijving keerzijde Central elaborately shaped shield bearing the arms of Denmark, superimposed upon a small cross of arms, surmounted by the Crown of Denmark. Surrounding the central shield are eleven flat-topped provincial shields bearing the arms of the Danish provinces, all arranged within a beaded (roped) inner circle. The pendant of the Order of the Elephant hangs from the lower portion of the inner circle. The king's motto appears as the outer legend around the rim, with the date divided into two parts by the crown and the mintmaster's initials positioned at the end of the legend.

Aanvullende informatie

Frederik III's speciedaler coinage spans one of the most violent ruptures in Danish history. Sweden's invasion in the winter of 1657–58 allowed Karl X Gustav to march his army across the frozen Belts — a crossing considered impossible — forcing Denmark into the Treaty of Roskilde and the permanent loss of Scania, Blekinge, and Bornholm. Coins struck across these years therefore bridge a Denmark that controlled both sides of the Øresund and one that did not.

The absolute monarchy Frederik declared in 1660, wresting power from the nobility and clergy, was formalized the following year — the precise window this type closes.
