| Obverse description | Facing crowned bust of Henry VI within a tressure of arches, rendered in the Gothic style characteristic of early fifteenth-century English hammered coinage. The king is depicted full-face with a stylized crown and draped shoulders. The surrounding legend is interspersed with alternating rosettes and mascles as punctuation marks, a defining feature of this issue. The legend runs in uncial Latin script within the beaded inner circle. |
