Obverse description Central field displays a rectangular cartouche containing a multiline inscription in Latin, arranged in horizontal lines across the coin's face. The legend reads the titles of Karl, Duke of Södermanland, and is rendered in Roman capitals typical of late 16th-century Swedish hammered coinage. The date 1587 appears within the inscription field. The overall style is characteristic of Renaissance-era Swedish duchy coinage, with the text serving as the primary design element rather than a portrait effigy. The coin exhibits irregular flan edges consistent with hammered production.
