Obverse description Central field occupied by the intertwined cypher 'AD' (for Atholl Duke), rendered in elegant script and surmounted by a ducal coronet with foliate detailing. The monogram is boldly executed in relief against a plain field. The date 1758 appears in the lower portion of the field, below the cypher. The coin is bordered by a continuous beaded rim. No peripheral legend is present on this side.

Reverse description Central field dominated by the triskelion (triskeles), the traditional three-armed symbol of the Isle of Man, depicted as three armoured legs radiating from a central point in a clockwise rotation. The motif fills the field boldly in high relief. A continuous circular Latin legend runs along the periphery, separated from the design by a beaded inner border and an outer beaded rim.
