| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate and draped bust of King Frederik III facing right, rendered in high relief with finely engraved flowing curls cascading to the shoulder and decorative armour beneath a mantle. The portrait is set within a beaded inner circle, with the royal titulary legend arranged around the periphery. The effigy displays the characteristic Baroque portraiture style associated with the Copenhagen Mint of the mid-seventeenth century. The king's features are strongly delineated with a prominent nose and firm jaw, consistent with known portrait dies of his reign. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederik III introduced the 2 Mark denomination in the years following the 1660 coup that abolished the Danish nobility's tax privileges and transformed the monarchy into an absolute hereditary institution — one of the most sweeping constitutional reversals in Scandinavian history. The coinage that followed carried deliberate iconographic weight, projecting a kingship now unconstrained by the Council of the Realm.
The KM#269.2 and 269.3 distinction reflects die varieties documented within the same year of issue, a reminder that Danes were producing multiple working dies simultaneously at Copenhagen without strict standardization between them.
