| Reverse description | The East India Company's bale mark occupies the central field, comprising a decorative cartouche or shield with an ampersand-derived motif. A circular legend surrounds the device naming the issuer and his trade. Variety note: the tail of the ampersand turns downward, and the centre point of the shield nearly touches the second limb of the letter V in the surrounding legend. |
