Obverse description The obverse depicts the crowned and armoured effigy of King Edward III standing full-face within a ship, holding a drawn sword in his right hand and a quartered shield in his left. The ship's hull is rendered with decorative detail typical of the Pre-Treaty period noble series, with the king's figure occupying the full height of the vessel. The surrounding legend reads in Lombardic and Gothic characters: ЄDWΛR` • DЄI • G` • RЄX • AИGL` • Ƶ • FRAИC` • D • hy`, representing the royal title Edward by the Grace of God King of England and France Lord of Ireland. The design is characteristic of the Series B coinage of the Pre-Treaty period, distinguished by its specific annulet and trefoil stops and letter forms.
