| Reverse description | The central field contains a four-line inscription in bold Roman numerals and Latin capital letters arranged within a beaded inner circle: XXIIII / SKILLING / DAN / 1624, denoting the denomination of 24 Skilling Dansk and the date of issue. The outer legend, separated by the beaded border, reads NORVE·VAND·GOTOR·Q·REX (or variant spellings), citing the king's titles as Rex of Norway, the Wends, and the Goths. A small cross serves as a stop at the top of the outer legend. The design is typical of the utilitarian, text-heavy reverse format employed on Danish hammered silver coinage of the early seventeenth century. |
