| Reverse description | Within a beaded inner circle, the denomination and currency name are displayed in four lines across the field: VIII. / SKILLI / NG.DA / N8K., with the numeral 8 used in place of the letter S in DANSK. The outer legend, separated by a beaded border, reads 1644 + VANDAL GOTOR Q REX, denoting Christian IV as King of the Vandals and Goths, with the date 1644 at the top. The lettering is boldly struck in the hammered tradition typical of early Danish-Norwegian coinage. |
