| Beschrijving voorzijde | Right-facing laureate and draped bust of King Frederik V, depicted in the Baroque portrait style with an elaborate powdered wig adorned with a laurel branch. The king wears a lace cravat and an ornate mantle. The surrounding legend reads FRIDERICUS V D G REX DAN NOR V G, interrupted by the truncation of the bust at the lower rim. The coin's broad, flat field provides a strong contrast to the finely rendered portrait. The toothed border frames the entire design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The *Rejsedaler* — literally "travel dollar" — was struck to commemorate Frederik V's visit to Norway in 1749, one of the very few occasions a Danish king made the journey in person during the eighteenth century. The coin served as a diplomatic gesture as much as a monetary one, distributed as a gift to mark royal presence in a territory that had been politically subordinate to Copenhagen since 1536.
Production was limited to the occasion itself, which is why survivors in any grade above Fine attract serious attention. The .875 fineness places it slightly below the standard thaler specification — a deliberate deviation, or simply the mint's working alloy at the time, remains a point of mild scholarly dispute.
