Reverse description A crowned shield bearing the Norwegian lion — a rampant, single-tailed lion holding a curved halberd — is superimposed upon a cross pattée that dominates the field. The royal motto legend encircles the design, and the date is divided by the lower arm of the cross. The mintmaster's initials F.G. appear in the lower field flanking the mintmark, itself divided by the cross. A beaded inner circle frames the entire composition.
