| Obverse description | A royal helmet depicted in the field, set upon a ground strewn with fleurs-de-lis, surmounted by a crowned leopard passant guardant to the left with head facing the viewer. The surrounding legend, rendered in Latin Gothic script, reads EDWR R ANGL Z FRANC D hIB, identifying Edward as King of England and France and Lord of Ireland. The overall design reflects the bold heraldic aesthetic characteristic of Edward III's early gold coinage of 1344. |
