Description:
Obverse
Two vertically displaced halves with a line that cuts a circle in two. This is the artist’s interpretation of the dissolution of the union– the successful division of a former whole. In between on the left is the letter "E" to indicate the place where the coin was minted, Eskilstuna, and on the right the letter "H", which is the first letter in the Riksbank Governor’s surname, Heikensten.
Reverse
A flagpole with a three-tailed flag. To the left of the flagpole is the text and to the right the denomination.
