Reverse description Central composition featuring an obelisk or trophy monument bearing three crowned heraldic shields and a royal cypher, flanked by scattered spoils of war including cannons, scaling ladders, drums, standards, and siege equipment. A tent camp is visible to the left and the fortress of Frederiksten on a rocky promontory to the right, with rays of divine light emanating from above. The inscription on the pedestal reads in three lines, a circular legend runs along the upper rim, and a six-line commemorative inscription occupies the lower exergue, all within a plain raised border.
