| Reverse description | A cross fourchée (forked cross) extends to the edges of the coin, dividing the field into four quarters each bearing one quarter of the royal arms. At the centre, a quartered shield displays the arms of England and France. Fleurs-de-lis ornament the forks of the cross, and the entire design is contained within a beaded inner circle. The reverse legend names the Bristol mint in abbreviated Latin, identifying this as a product of the provincial Bristol workshop active during the final years of Henry VIII's reign. |
