A very rare typological coin.
An early type of orta from the Swedish occupation of the city of Elblag by the Swedes. Of Swedish character, rather than urban, like all later Elblag orts of Karl Gustav.
Distinguished by a large lion on the reverse, flanked by two crowns, instead of the city coat of arms with an Angel.
Bust of the ruler facing right, in double border.
At the bottom, the initials N-H.
