| Beschrijving keerzijde | The quartered royal shield of arms of Great Britain, prominently crowned, occupies the center of the reverse field. The shield displays the arms of England (three passant guardant lions) in the first and fourth quarters, France (three fleurs-de-lis) in the second quarter, Scotland (a rampant lion) in the third quarter upper, and Ireland (a harp) in the lower third quarter, in the heraldic arrangement of the Stuart dynasty. The shield is set upon a long cross fourchée whose extremities reach the beaded inner circle. The Latin motto legend, referencing the union of the kingdoms, is arranged around the periphery between the beaded borders. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The laurel series replaced the earlier unite coinage in 1619, the name derived from the laureate bust that distinguished it from its predecessor. James's third coinage laurels are among the more technically troubled issues of the series — the large, thin flans were notoriously difficult to strike evenly, and off-center or weakly filled examples are the norm rather than the exception. Spink 2638C specifically denotes the third bust variant, a distinction that matters considerably for attribution.
James died in March 1625, leaving this among the final gold issues of his reign.
