| Reversbeschreibung | Long cross pattée dividing the field into four quadrants, each containing three pellets arranged in a triangular formation, all within an inner beaded circle. The arms of the cross extend to the beaded border, creating the standard groat layout. Between the arms of the cross, the two-line reverse legend is divided into an inner and outer inscription separated by the beaded circle, naming the mint town of Perth. The design follows the established pattern of contemporary Scottish and English groat coinage. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Robert III's heavy coinage takes its name from the relatively high silver content maintained during his reign, a deliberate policy response to the chronic bullion shortages and coin clipping that had plagued Scottish currency through much of the 14th century. The 2nd issue is distinguished from the 1st primarily by mintmark differences and subtle legend variations — Spink 5170 specifically places it within the Edinburgh and Perth mint output of the period.
Robert III was largely incapacitated by injury for much of his reign, with effective governance handled by his brother Robert, Duke of Albany. The groat circulated during one of the more administratively chaotic periods in Scottish regal history.
