Aversbeschreibung	Central field dominated by the large cursive royal cypher 'GR' (Georgius Rex) in flowing script, surmounted by a heraldic crown with cross finial. The cypher is encircled by a laurel and olive wreath tied with a ribbon bow at the base. The date 1796 is divided by the crown at the top of the field, with '17' to the left and '96' to the right. The entire design is rendered in a refined neoclassical style with a milled border.

Reversbeschreibung	The armorial achievement of the Company of Merchants Trading to Africa occupies the central field, comprising an oval shield divided into two quarters: the upper quarter displays a beehive amid stars on a horizontally lined ground, while the lower quarter depicts a sailing vessel on the sea. The shield is surmounted by a crest of a castle or fortified tower with a flagpole, upon which stands a passant elephant. Two native African male figures serve as supporters on either side, each standing and holding a staff or spear, rendered with considerable ethnographic detail. The circular legend reading 'FREE TRADE TO AFRICA. BY ACT. OF PARLIAMENT. 1750.' surrounds the entire composition within a milled border.
