| Obverse lettering | CHRISTIANVS · D : G · DANIE (Translation: Christian III, by the Grace of God, (King of) Denmark.) |
| Reverse description | The denomination and date are presented in five horizontal lines of text within a central beaded circle, reading '8 SKILLI / NCK·DA / NSKE· / +1544+ / NORWE·SLAVO·GOTOR·Q·REX'. A circumscribing Latin legend occupies the annular space between the inner beaded circle and an outer beaded rim, completing the royal titles. The layout reflects the prevalent late medieval and early Reformation-era Danish numismatic convention of placing the value and date prominently in the reverse field. |
