| Obverse description | A crowned rectangular cartouche shield occupies the central field, enclosing the crowned Norwegian lion rampant facing left and grasping a halberd, set against a vertically lined background. The royal cipher CL XV, for Carl XV, is divided by the shield and appears in the field to either side. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border along the rim. |

| Reverse description | The denomination and date are arranged in three lines across the central field, reading *2* SKILLING above 1872, with the Kongsberg Mint mark (crossed hammers) positioned below the date in the exergue area. The design is framed by a beaded border along the rim, consistent with the plain, utilitarian style typical of Norwegian pattern coinage of this period. |
