| Reverse description | The central design features the Norwegian royal crown above a helmet mantling, beneath which is a shield bearing the rampant lion with axe — the Norwegian coat of arms. Flanking the central composition are detailed cityscape views, identifiable as Akershus Fortress to the left and Nidaros Cathedral to the right. Two heraldic symbols appear in the lower flanking fields. The engraver's signature H. RUI appears in the lower exergue. A circular legend runs along the rim. |
