| Obverse description | Draped and armored bust of King Christian VI facing right, wearing a long flowing wig rendered in high relief with finely detailed curls cascading over his shoulders. A royal crown is prominently depicted at the base of the truncation, resting against the drapery. The portrait is executed in the Baroque style typical of early 18th-century Germanic and Scandinavian coinage, with bold sculptural modeling. The circular Latin legend runs along the periphery, interrupted by bullet separators, reading CHRIST • VI • D • G • REX • DAN • NORV • V • G •. The coin's broad flat rim features fine milled dentilation framing the design. |
