| Aversbeschreibung | Central field bears the crowned rampant lion of Norway, rendered in high relief within a plain inner circle, facing left with forepaws raised and tail curled over its back. The royal crown surmounts the lion directly above, serving both as a heraldic device and a design element bridging the inner circle and the outer legend. The circumferential Latin legend reads FRID·IV·D·G·REX·DAN·NOR·V·G, identifying Frederik IV as King of Denmark, Norway, Vandals and Goths by the grace of God. The lettering is separated by pellet stops and disposed evenly around the entire periphery. The overall die style is characteristic of early eighteenth-century Kongsberg Mint engraving, with bold, deeply struck lettering contrasting against a relatively flat field. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Frederik IV's Norwegian coinage of the late 1720s was struck under persistent fiscal pressure — the Great Northern War had drained Danish-Norwegian crown finances severely, and billon issues like this one reflect the compromises forced on the mint in Kongsberg, which had only reopened in 1686 after decades of dormancy. The .468 fineness places this squarely in the debased range tolerated when silver supplies from the Kongsberg mines ran short or were diverted to more pressing obligations.
Kongsberg's output during these years was chronically inconsistent, and pieces from the 1727–1730 window often show planchet irregularities traceable to the mill-and-screw equipment still being calibrated after periodic production gaps.
