Obverse script Latin
Obverse lettering CHRIST: VI: D: G: REX: DAN: NOR: V: G:
(Translation: Christian VI, King of Denmark, Norway, Vandals and Goths)
Reverse description The reverse bears a bold, multi-line denomination inscription arranged across the central field in large raised letters: VIII / SKILLING / DANSKE, followed by the date 1733 and the mint-master's initials N·B·F below. Small four-pointed stars flank the VIII at the top and appear beside the initials at the bottom, providing decorative punctuation. The legends are rendered in a plain, utilitarian Roman capital style consistent with Danish pattern coinage of the period. The milled border frames the entire composition, reinforcing the piece's status as a carefully struck trial piece from the Kongsberg Mint.
