Beschrijving voorzijde Front-facing crowned effigy of James III within a beaded inner circle, the king depicted with a stylized facing bust typical of the Scottish hammered coinage of the period. Small crosses flank the king's neck on either side, serving as decorative and compositional elements in the field. The portrait is rendered in the flat, archaic style characteristic of mid-fifteenth-century Scottish die engraving, with the crown prominently displayed above the royal visage. The surrounding circular legend is separated from the central design by a beaded border.

Opschrift voorzijde IACOBVS D GRA REX SCOT
(Translation: James, by the grace of God, King of Scots)
Beschrijving keerzijde A long voided cross pattée extending to the beaded inner circle divides the reverse into four quarters, with trefoils composed of three pellets alternating with six-pointed mullets placed in the respective quarters. The overall design follows the standard Scottish groat reverse layout of the fifteenth century, with the quatrefoil arrangement providing both decorative and symbolic royal significance. A beaded inner circle contains the central design, while the outer legend is separated by a further beaded border. The mint name appears within the circular legend, identifying Edinburgh as the place of striking.
