Reverse description Within a plain inner circle and a prominent beaded outer border, the field displays the denomination mark SV (Salutem, indicating the value of five shillings or one quarter of a pound) in large incuse characters, with the S rendered in a distinctive cursive script above the Roman numeral V. The design is stark and functional, consistent with the emergency nature of this Ormonde Money issue, with no additional legend or decorative elements beyond the inner circle.
