| Obverse description | Central field features the crowned Norwegian coat of arms displaying a rampant lion, flanked by two crossed flags — the Norwegian-Swedish union flag on the left and the pure Norwegian flag on the right — all resting on a spray of oak leaves tied at the base. The dates 1814 and 1893 appear in the upper field separated by a star, within a beaded border. A suspension loop is integral to the piece. |
