| Obverse description | Conjoined busts of King Oscar II and Queen Sofia facing right, rendered in high relief within a beaded inner circle. The royal couple are portrayed in formal attire, the King in military dress and the Queen in a diademed coiffure. The legend encircling the border reads 'KONUNG OSCAR II * DROTTNING SOFIA', with a floral ornamental device positioned at the base between the two names. The portrait style reflects the refined classical engraving tradition associated with Erik Lindberg. |
