| Beschrijving voorzijde | Half-length effigy of King Karl IX facing right, crowned and armored, wearing a richly decorated pauldron and gorget, holding an orb surmounted by a cross in his right hand and a scepter in his left. Above the king's head, a radiant Tetragrammaton ( יהוה ) appears within a sunburst, serving as a divine emblem of royal authority. The portrait is contained within a beaded inner circle, with the Latin royal legend encircling the field: CAROLVS·IX·D:G·SVECOR·GOTH·VAND·&C·REX, followed by the king's personal motto IEHOVAH·SOLATIVM·MEVM. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Karl IX's claim to the Swedish throne was legally contested for years — he had deposed his nephew Sigismund III of Poland in 1599 and ruled as regent before finally crowning himself king in 1604. These large silver coins, struck across a five-year window, were part of a deliberate effort to project regal legitimacy through hard currency at a moment when that legitimacy was anything but settled. Sweden was simultaneously fighting Poland, Denmark, and Russia during portions of this period.
Stockholm production of the Second Series shows considerable die variation across the run, and examples from the later years of issue tend toward rougher workmanship as mint capacity was strained by wartime demands.
