Beschrijving voorzijde Crowned shield bearing the horizontally striped arms of Oldenburg, surmounted by an arched crown with pellets and fleurs-de-lis. The escutcheon is rendered in low relief on the irregular, roughly quadrilateral flan characteristic of klipping coinage. The field surrounding the shield is plain and unlettered, consistent with the emergency nature of this issue.

Beschrijving keerzijde Crowned shield bearing the horizontally striped arms of Oldenburg, struck in lower relief than the obverse due to the characteristics of hammered klipping production. The crown surmounting the escutcheon is visible but less sharply defined, and the surrounding field is unadorned. The flan edges are clipped and irregular, reflecting the emergency circumstances of this wartime coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

Christian II struck these klippings during his attempted reconquest of Scandinavia, having already been deposed from the Danish throne in 1523. The Norwegian issues date to his brief military campaign of 1531–32, when he landed with a fleet backed partly by Habsburg financing and initially met little resistance. He was captured at Akershus in 1532 after being lured into negotiations and spent the remaining 27 years of his life imprisoned — making this emergency-style coinage among the last struck under his authority anywhere.
