| Obverse description | At centre, the crowned royal shield of Scotland bearing the lion rampant within a tressure flory-counter-flory, surmounted by a royal crown rendered in relief. The fractional mark of value '3/4' (denoting one-quarter merk) is placed in the field to either side of the shield. A continuous Latin legend surrounds the design, separated from the central device by the coin's irregular flan edge, reading clockwise from upper right. |
