| Aversbeschreibung | The entire obverse field is occupied by a multi-line funerary Latin inscription recording the key biographical dates of Karl X Gustav. The legend is arranged in seven lines of Roman capital lettering and is enclosed within an ornamental wreath border consisting of stylized laurel or olive branches tied with a decorative knot at the top and bottom, framing the inscription in the fashion typical of Swedish commemorative coinage of the mid-seventeenth century. The outer border of the coin features a beaded or rope-like rim. There is no effigy; the design relies entirely on the epigraphic content as a memorial record. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Karl X Gustav died in February 1660 at Gothenburg, aged 37, almost certainly from pneumonia contracted during the winter campaign. His death came at a politically precarious moment — peace negotiations at Oliva were still unresolved, and Sweden held territories across the Baltic that required a functioning monarchy to defend. The funeral coinage was struck as part of the formal mourning observances, a practice rooted in Swedish ceremonial tradition dating back through the Vasa kings.
SM#40 is among the scarcer Swedish memorial issues of the 17th century. The .880 fineness is characteristic of Swedish silver production in this period, when the crown was managing bullion supplies under considerable fiscal strain from decades of near-continuous warfare.
