| Reverse description | Four crowned cruciform shields of arms — England, Scotland, France, and Ireland — arranged in a cross pattern, with royal sceptres bearing national emblems (rose, thistle, fleur-de-lis, and harp) displayed in the angles between the shields. The date is divided and positioned above the central crown at the top of the cross, with each pair of digits flanking the uppermost shield. The encircling Latin legend MAG· BR·FRA· ET·HIB· REX· runs around the periphery, with the year integrated into the design. A beaded inner border frames the composition. |
