| Beschrijving voorzijde | Within the irregularly clipped silver flan, the field displays a large Gothic letter C — the royal cypher of King Christian II — surmounted by a flamboyant open crown rendered in the late medieval style, with prominent fleurons and arched banding. The monogram occupies the majority of the flan, struck in bold relief with no surrounding legend, characteristic of the hastily produced klipping coinage of the period. The die work is simple but deliberate, reflecting the emergency nature of the issue. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a heraldic shield bearing the barry arms of Oldenburg — the dynastic coat of arms consisting of multiple horizontal bars — surmounted by a crown of similar flamboyant medieval form with crescent-tipped points. The shield is centrally placed on the roughly clipped flan with no surrounding legend, the design executed in a plain but heraldically recognizable manner consistent with emergency klipping coinage. The striated field of the shield reflects the alternating gold and sable barry of the Oldenburg dynasty. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Christian II struck these klippings during his attempt to reclaim the Scandinavian throne after his deposition in 1523. Minted at Akershus under emergency conditions, the square-cut fabric reflects the speed and desperation of his Norwegian campaign rather than any established mint practice. His reconquest ultimately failed; he was captured in 1532 and spent the remaining 27 years of his life imprisoned at Sønderborg and later Kalundborg Castle.
