| Reverse description | Long voided cross extending to the coin's edge, dividing the field into four quadrants, each containing a six-pointed star or mullet, a design feature characteristic of John Balliol's second coinage type. A beaded inner circle separates the central cross design from the surrounding uncial Latin legend. The cross terminals and mullets are executed in the hammered style typical of contemporary Scottish and English pennies, reflecting close stylistic ties to the English coinage of Edward I. |
