| Beschrijving keerzijde | The crowned greater arms of Sweden displayed within an ornate baroque shield, flanked by two rampant lion supporters on either side. Below the shield, the date 1727 appears within a cartouche formed by crossed palm branches, a classical decorative motif. Above the crowned shield, the royal motto of King Frederick I is inscribed in Swedish. The overall composition reflects the elaborate heraldic style characteristic of early 18th-century Swedish coinage. |

The 1727 date places this coin in a peculiar constitutional moment: Frederick I had been king for seven years but ruled under strict limitations imposed after the death of Charles XII, with real power held by the Riksdag through the so-called Age of Liberty. Frederick was, in practical terms, a figurehead. The dual portrait pairing with Ulrika Eleonora — who had abdicated in his favor in 1720 — was a deliberate legitimizing gesture, tying his authority to the Vasa bloodline he otherwise lacked.
The .878 fine silver alloy is characteristic of Swedish riksdaler coinage of this period, minted at Stockholm under the supervision of the Board of Mines.
