| Obverse description | Crowned and armored bust of Gustav II Adolf, King of Sweden, facing right, wearing a ruffled collar and mantle with visible armor detailing. The effigy is rendered in a bold, somewhat crude hammered style typical of early 17th-century Polish-Prussian coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait, reading GUSTAV: ADOLPH: D:G: REX: SVE:, denoting his title as King of Sweden by the Grace of God. |
