| Reverse description | A voided long cross pattée divides the reverse field into four quarters, each containing a pellet or small ornament, consistent with the standard hammered farthing reverse design of the period. The legend CIVI TAS LON DON is distributed across the quarters in uncial Latin lettering, identifying the London mint. The beaded inner circle frames the design, and the irregular flan edges reflect typical hand-hammered production. The cross is centrally placed and boldly struck, though softness is visible in some quadrants due to the thin flan. |
