| Reverse description | Central shield bearing the Dalarna arms of crossed arrows, with the initial 'G' (for Gustavus) placed between the arrows, surmounted by or combined with the three crowns of Sweden, symbolizing Gustav Vasa's claim to the Swedish throne. The shield is set within a beaded or linear inner circle, with a partially legible Latin legend in the outer field, though on most surviving examples the inscription is poorly struck or illegible due to the irregular klippe flan. The design is executed in a rough, utilitarian style reflective of the emergency nature of this emission. |
