Obverse description Draped bust of Queen Anne facing left, rendered in high relief with finely detailed hair swept up and secured with a jewelled ornament, a pendant visible at the nape of the neck. The effigy is engraved in the classical style characteristic of John Croker, with the queen's robes rendered in elegant folds at the truncation. The circular legend ANNA AVGVSTA runs around the periphery, separated from the central device by a prominent milled inner border.

Reverse description The allegorical figure of Peace, depicted as a robed female deity, rides in a biga — a two-horse chariot — proceeding to the right. The composition celebrates the Treaty of Utrecht (1713) and is rendered with classical baroque precision. The legend PAX·MISSA·PER·ORBEM arcs above the central device, and the date 1713 appears in the exergue below, all enclosed within a milled inner border.
