Reverse description A crowned Irish harp occupies the centre of the field, flanked on the left by a crowned letter P and on the right by a crowned letter M, representing Philip and Mary respectively. The design is contained within a beaded inner circle, with a mintmark placed at the top of the inner circle. The entire composition is characteristic of Tudor-period Irish hammered silver coinage. The surrounding Latin legend reads as a pious declaration of divine protection.
