| Beschrijving keerzijde | The denomination and name of the currency are boldly inscribed across four lines in the central field: the Roman numeral XVI flanked by rosette stops on the first line, followed by SKILLING, then DANSKE, and the four-digit date 1715 flanked by pellets on the fourth line. Below the date, the mint master's initials C W flank a small heart-shaped mintmark, identifying the Copenhagen Mint. The overall design is stark and typographic, with no additional decorative elements beyond the separating stops, and the coin exhibits a milled edge visible at the periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederik IV's Northern Wars spending — Denmark was engaged in the Great Northern War against Sweden through this entire period — created persistent pressure on the royal treasury, and the 16-skilling denomination was among several billon and debased silver issues pushed into circulation to meet demand. The .625 fineness here is notably below the standard expected for a coin of this face value, a deliberate reduction that did not go unnoticed by Danish merchants and foreign traders alike.
KM#505 spans three minting years, and minor die variations exist across the run.
