Obverse description Central design features three daler-value shields arranged in a triangular formation within a radiant sun motif, the rays extending outward toward the coin's rim. The circular legend is interrupted by five small stars evenly spaced around the periphery. The overall composition is rendered in the bold, flat relief characteristic of late 16th-century Swedish hammered coinage.
