| Reverse description | A long voided cross extending to the coin's edge divides the field into four quarters, each containing a six-pointed mullet (star), creating the classic Scottish short-cross farthing design. The cross arms are bold and plainly struck, with the mullets positioned centrally within each quarter. The circumferential legend in uncial Latin reads REX SCOTORVM between the inner beaded circle and the outer border, with the irregular flan and characteristic die-shift typical of hammered Scottish farthings of this period. |
