| Obverse description | Central device comprises the royal shield of arms set within a quatrefoil frame, with a rose in the left field and a star in the right field; the letter E (for Edward) appears above the shield. The surrounding legend in uncial Latin script reads EDWARD' · DI'· GRA' · REX · AnGL' · Z, contracting the full royal title. The hammered flan exhibits the characteristic irregular edge typical of late medieval English gold coinage. The quatrefoil border provides a formal architectural framing device consistent with Yorkist artistic convention. |
