| Reverse description | The rampant lion of Sweden occupies the central field, depicted passant-rampant with open jaws and raised forepaw, surmounted by a royal crown above its head. Three additional crowns — emblematic of the Three Crowns of Sweden — are positioned around the lion: one to the upper center atop the lion, one to the lower left, and one to the lower right. The numeral 8 appears in the right field, denoting the denomination. The mintmaster's initials N-H are placed in the lower field, flanking the lion's feet, within a plain circular border. |
