| Aanvullende informatie |
Christian IV's 1644 coinage program for Norway came during a period of sustained fiscal pressure — the Torstenson War with Sweden was actively draining Danish-Norwegian resources, and the king was simultaneously managing a humiliating naval defeat at the Battle of Colberger Heide that same year. Pattern issues from this period reflect the crown's attempts to rationalize and redenominate its silver coinage under wartime constraint rather than in peacetime stability.
Hede 22A and Brekke 142 citations place this firmly in pattern territory — produced for approval, not circulation. The .750 fine silver specification at this weight suggests a deliberate downward adjustment from earlier skilling standards.
