Obverse description Facing crowned bust of King Edward II in high relief, rendered in the typical medieval hammered style with bold, slightly crude detail. The king is depicted with a stylized crown and hair visible at the sides, set within a beaded inner circle. A Latin legend in uncial characters surrounds the effigy, reading EDWARDVS REX A, identifying the monarch as Edward, King of England. The overall design reflects the conventions of early 14th-century English hammered coinage.
