| Obverse description | Draped bust of Alfred the Great facing right, rendered in a crude, provincial style typical of late 18th-century evasion tokens. The effigy shows the head and upper shoulders with flowing hair tied at the nape. The legend ALFRED THE GREAT appears in the field around the bust, arranged along the periphery of the coin. |
