| Reverse description | Central shield bearing the Three Crowns of Sweden, surmounted by a royal crown, with the lion of the Folkung arms in the quarters. The shield is set in an open field and surrounded by a double circular legend in Latin referencing the regnal year and the antiquity of Swedish kingship, including the inscription QUI REGNAVIT ANNO and MCCLXXVII, alluding to the founding of the Swedish monarchy, with the legend IUSTON running along the upper portion. The lettering is rendered in Gothic characters within a beaded border, consistent with the hammered coinage style of Karl IX. |
