| Reverse description | Three castles depicted in crude raised relief, arranged within the square flan and encircled by a border of pellets. The castles, emblematic of the town of Bandon, are rendered in a highly simplified, almost schematic style characteristic of hastily produced siege emergency coinage. The surface is heavily worn and pitted, with the design elements barely distinguishable across the rough field. |
