| Obverse description | Central field bears the Danish royal coat of arms, a quartered shield displaying three passant lions above a single passant lion, all within a plain escutcheon. The shield is surmounted by a large royal crown with arched bands and visible ornamentation. The design is unadorned by a surrounding legend, with the entire composition centered within a plain field bordered by a beaded inner rim. |
