| Obverse description | Large rectangular copper plate with five applied stamps distributed across the field: one central stamp and four corner stamps. The central stamp, struck in a circular die, bears the denomination legend '4 DALER / Sölff:Mnt' within a beaded border. Each of the four corner stamps, also circular and beaded, bears the royal legend of Queen Christina with the regnal date, featuring a crowned royal cipher or arms device. The unworked copper field between stamps retains the rough, cast surface texture characteristic of Swedish plate money (plåtmynt), with natural patination ranging from reddish-brown to verdigris. |
