| Reverse description | The arms of the City of Exeter occupy the centre of the field, depicted as a heraldic shield bearing a sword and other civic charges, surmounted by a crest featuring a lion passant atop a mural crown. The shield is supported on the dexter side by a winged griffin and on the sinister side by a horse, both rendered in bold relief. A ribbon scroll beneath the shield bears the city motto, partially legible as SEMPER FIDELIS. The legend EXETER HALFPENNY arcs around the upper periphery, with the date 1792 inscribed in the lower field beneath the arms. The entire design is enclosed within a milled border. |
