Obverse description Central field bears a crowned, ornate oval shield displaying the quartered arms of Denmark, enclosed within a beaded or rope inner circle. The royal crown surmounts the shield, rendered in fine detail consistent with early 17th-century Danish heraldic style. A circular legend in Latin surrounds the border, identifying the monarch by name and royal title. The lettering is separated by pellets or rosettes, typical of the period's engraving conventions.
