| Obverse lettering | FRIDE RICVS *2*D*G* DANIE (Translation: Frederik II (King of) Denmark by the Grace of God) |
| Reverse description | The central field bears a bold four-line inscription in Roman capitals reading III / MARCK / DANSKE / LXIII, denoting the denomination of three Danish Mark and the last two digits of the regnal year 1563. The date numerals are rendered in Roman notation. The inscription is enclosed within a raised inner circle, with a continuous circumferential legend in Latin running clockwise around the outer border, separated from the central field by a plain raised rim. Cross and rosette stops punctuate the legend at regular intervals. The lettering style is consistent with the robust, high-relief engraving typical of sixteenth-century Danish hammered silver coinage. |
