| Obverse description | Crude hammered field bearing the initials 'K S' (abbreviation for Kinsale) arranged within or adjacent to a roughly struck circle of pellets. The design is characteristically primitive, consistent with siege or refuge coinage produced under duress, with the pellet border serving as the principal decorative framing device. The flat, irregular flan exhibits the typical irregularities of hand-cut planchet manufacture. |
