Reverse description Three crowns arranged in a triangular formation — two in chief and one in base — enclosed within a beaded inner circle, representing the traditional heraldic emblem of the Swedish realm (Tre Kronor). The crowns are depicted in a bold, stylized hammered fashion typical of mid-16th century Swedish coinage. The date numeral 40 (denoting 1540) appears in the field alongside the legend. The surrounding Latin inscription OMNIS POTESTAS A DEO runs along the outer border, proclaiming that all power derives from God.
