| Obverse description | Central field depicts Frederik V in full coronation regalia, shown in a frontal standing pose, wearing crown and royal robes and holding a sceptre, set beneath an elaborate canopied baldachin with draped curtains parted to either side. The composition is rendered in high relief with fine Baroque detail, conveying the solemnity of the coronation ceremony. The encircling Latin legend reads FRIDERICVS V D G REX DAN NOR, identifying the king by name and royal title, and runs along the upper periphery interrupted only by the canopy top. |
