| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays the denomination and inscription arranged across four horizontal lines in bold, clearly struck capital letters: the numeral II flanked by rosette ornaments at top, followed by SKILLING, DANSKE, and the date 1761, with the mintmaster's initials and mint mark appearing in smaller characters on a fifth line at the base of the field. The design is plain and functional, with no border other than the coin's milled edge. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederik V's reign coincided with a period of Danish monetary reorganization following the strain of earlier military expenditures, and the small billon skilling denominations bore the brunt of repeated composition adjustments. The .343 fineness of this issue reflects a deliberate debasement — silver content kept just high enough to avoid the full stigma of copper coinage while minimizing Crown expenditure on bullion.
KM#579 spans over a decade of production, meaning multiple die marriages and mint officer tenures are represented across the type. Copenhagen Mint records from this period document chronic underfunding of the skilling series specifically.
