| Obverse description | Three-quarter-length armored effigy of Christian III facing right, holding a sword in the left hand, the bust breaking the inner beaded circle. The date appears below the bust within the field. The royal title legend is arranged in the surrounding outer ring, itself enclosed by a second beaded circle at the rim. The overall style is characteristic of early sixteenth-century German-influenced Danish hammered coinage. |
