| Obverse description | Bare-headed effigy of King Christian X facing right, rendered in high relief with strong naturalistic detail. The peripheral legend reads CHRISTIAN X KONGE AF DANMARK, arcing around the upper and lower rim. The mint master's initials N♥S appear in small characters at the base of the portrait, below the truncation. The overall style reflects the restrained neoclassical portraiture characteristic of early twentieth-century Danish coinage. |
