| Reverse description | A long voided cross extends to the inner circle, dividing the reverse into four quarters. Alternate quarters contain pellets and mullets (six-pointed stars), arranged symmetrically around the central crossing point. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the mint and salvatory legend occupying the outer field. The arrangement follows the standard type of late medieval Scottish groats, with the cross functioning both as a devotional symbol and a structural design element. |
