| Reverse description | Within a raised inner circle, a three-masted sailing ship is depicted in profile facing left, with partially furled sails and detailed rigging, evoking the Danish colonial trade vessels of the era. A fortification or lighthouse structure is visible to the right of the vessel. The date 1767 appears in the lower exergue area within the circle. A circular legend surrounds the inner circle, reading the denomination and mint designation in Latin, separated by dot stops. |
