Reverse description The reverse presents a five-line patriotic inscription arranged in the open field, enclosed within a circular wreath composed of oak branches with acorns, tied at the base. The date 1808 appears on the penultimate line, followed by the mintmaster's initials M·F· at the foot of the inscription. The design commemorates a voluntary patriotic offering to the Danish fatherland, reflecting the coin's emergency issue character during the Napoleonic Wars period. The oak wreath, a traditional Danish national symbol, frames the legend with an uncluttered, dignified aesthetic.
