| Reverse description | The arms of Scotland — the rampant lion within a double tressure flory-counterflory — displayed on a shield of late Gothic form, centrally positioned within a plain cross that divides the field into four quarters. The shield is rendered with considerable detail, with the lion passant and the tressure clearly articulated. A beaded inner circle frames the design, with the mint legend arranged around the outer border. The cross terminals terminate near the beaded circle, consistent with the Type III groat design of James V's second coinage. |
