Obverse description Unadorned right-facing effigy of King Carl XVI Gustaf, rendered in high relief with finely detailed hair. The portrait occupies the central field and is engraved in a clean, modernist style characteristic of late 20th-century Scandinavian medallic art. A circular legend runs along the periphery, reading CARL*XVI*GUSTAF at the top and SVERIGES*KONUNG at the bottom, separated by small decorative star stops. The field is mirror-polished, lending the portrait a crisp, cameo-like appearance against the deeply reflective background.

Reverse description The central field depicts a closely arranged group of medieval Swedish coins in high relief, their archaic inscriptions and primitive designs rendered in fine detail to evoke one thousand years of Swedish coinage history. The composition commemorates the millennium of Swedish minting, spanning from 995 to 1995. A circular border legend reads SVENSK*MYNTNING*995-1995 around the upper periphery, while the denomination 200 KRONOR and the mint master's initials E and B appear at the lower border. The overall design conveys a strong historical and numismatic theme, with the antique coin imagery contrasting effectively against the polished silver field.
