| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crowned and draped bust of King Christian IV facing right, set within a beaded inner circle. The king is depicted wearing an elaborate crown and a fur-trimmed mantle, rendered in a bold, high-relief hammered style characteristic of early 17th-century Danish coinage. The Latin royal legend encircles the effigy between the beaded border and the square klippe flan edge. The overall design reflects the mannered portraiture conventions of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The large gold daler issues of Christian IV belong to a period of deliberate monetary posturing — Denmark controlled the Sound tolls at Øresund, extracting dues from nearly every vessel passing between the North Sea and the Baltic, and the crown's wealth was conspicuously real. Christian used high-denomination gold coinage partly to signal that financial standing to foreign courts and trading partners.
Fr#47 is among the scarcer entries in Friedberg's Nordic listings for this reign. Christian IV ruled until 1648, but the 1604 gold issues predate his disastrous involvement in the Thirty Years' War, which ultimately drained the treasury he had worked to build.
