| Reverse description | A stone altar dominates the centre of the field, its front panel decorated with the crowned royal cypher F4 flanked by foliate branches. Atop the altar rest the Crown of Denmark, a globus cruciger, and a sceptre crossed with a sword. Above the altar, rays of light emanate from a radiant sun bearing the Hebrew Tetragrammaton (יהוה). The circular Latin legend flanks the scene on left and right, and the date inscription appears in two lines in the lower exergue. |
