| Obverse description | Crowned facing portrait (full face effigy) of King Edward III set within an inner beaded circle, with the surrounding legend in uncial Latin script. Two pellets appear above the mintmark, a diagnostic feature distinguishing this Transitional treaty period issue. The portrait is rendered in the bold, stylised manner characteristic of mid-14th-century hammered English silver coinage, with prominent crown and facial features typical of the fourth coinage type. |
