| Aversbeschreibung | Full-length effigy of King Christian IV standing facing right, crowned and robed, holding a scepter in his right hand with his left hand resting on the pommel of his sword. The royal figure is enclosed within a beaded or rope inner circle, with his feet breaking through the lower border into the surrounding legend. A large decorative star appears immediately to the left of the king's feet, serving as a distinctive variety marker. The Latin legend, naming the king and his title by the grace of God, runs around the outer periphery. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Christian IV struck these heavy silver pieces during the opening years of the Thirty Years' War, a conflict he would eventually enter in 1625 as the self-appointed champion of German Protestantism — a campaign that ended in catastrophic defeat at the Battle of Lutter in 1626 and cost Denmark significant territory. The multiple Davenport varieties catalogued under this type reflect die-axis and legend punctuation differences common to the Copenhagen mint's workshop practices of the period, where individual engravers worked with considerable autonomy.
The star in the legend is the distinguishing feature separating this from closely related contemporaneous issues, a seemingly minor detail that has generated persistent collector interest in variety attribution.
