Reverse description The quartered royal arms of England and France, displayed on a crowned shield supported on the dexter by a rampant lion and on the sinister by a dragon, both standing on a ground line, with the initial mark 'E' appearing below the shield in the lower field. The shield bears the three fleurs-de-lis of France in the first and fourth quarters and the three passant guardant lions of England in the second and third quarters. A beaded inner circle frames the design, with the biblical Latin legend surrounding the supporters.
