| Obverse description | Laureate and cuirassed bust of King William III facing right, rendered in high relief with fine portrait detail characteristic of the late 17th-century English milled coinage. The king's effigy displays a flowing laurel wreath and armored shoulders, conveying regal authority. A Latin legend encircles the bust along the rim, reading GVLIELMVS TERTIVS. The field surrounding the portrait shows the plain, unadorned treatment typical of copper issues of this reign. |
