| Reverse description | A tall obelisk rises from a stepped pedestal in the center of the field; its upper portion is obscured by clouds from which two arms emerge, the left holding a rake and scythe, the right a sword and musket. Atop the obelisk rests the crowned royal monogram of Frederik IV, above which rays of divine light emanate from the Hebrew name of God (Tetragrammaton) at the top of the field. A fortified town appears in the right background, while ploughed wheat fields occupy the left foreground. The obelisk shaft bears two lines of inscription, the pedestal four lines, and a two-line legend with the date appears in the exergue. |
