| Obverse description | Central field displays the crowned royal arms of Norway — a shield bearing the rampant lion passant guardant — struck in low relief characteristic of hammered coinage. The shield is surmounted by a royal crown, rendered in the late medieval Gothic style. A circular legend in uncial Latin characters surrounds the central device, reading ARMA REGIS NORVEGI (Arms of the King of Norway), with the inscription partly bordered by a beaded or rope inner circle. The strike is typical of the interregnum period, showing irregular flan shape and uneven distribution of metal. |
