| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped and armored bust of King Frederik III, facing right with long flowing hair, set within an inner beaded circle. The royal effigy is rendered in the baroque portrait style typical of mid-17th century Scandinavian coinage. A Latin legend encircles the bust, separated from the beaded border ring at the rim. The field between the bust and the inner circle is plain. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederik III's 1657 Norwegian speciesdaler was struck during one of the most precarious moments in Danish-Norwegian history: the Great Northern War sequence that saw Sweden under Charles X Gustav invade and occupy much of Jutland, forcing the humiliating Treaty of Roskilde in February 1658. The crown desperately needed hard currency to fund military operations and maintain loyalties, and Norwegian silver — drawn from the Kongsberg mines — was central to that effort.
The Thesen 81B attribution distinguishes this from related dies within the series. Kongsberg's output in this period was inconsistent, and planchet quality varies noticeably across surviving examples.
