Obverse description A woman seated facing right on a low stool, engaged at a large spinning wheel, her right hand raised holding the thread and her left steadying the work. The scene is rendered in fine relief and alludes directly to the sail canvas trade of Plymouth. The circumferential legend SAIL CANVAS MANUFACTORY arcs around the upper field, while the date 1796 appears in the exergue below a horizontal ground line. The coin exhibits a denticulated border.
