| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays the crowned royal shield of Scotland bearing the rampant lion, surmounted by an ornate fleur-de-lis crown, all executed in high relief characteristic of late medieval hammered gold coinage. The shield is rendered with careful detail, the lion passant-guardant visible within the quartered field. A beaded inner circle separates the central device from the surrounding legend. The circumferential legend in uncial Gothic lettering reads ROBERTVS DEI GRA REX SCOTORVM, identifying the issuing monarch, and is punctuated by stops and heraldic devices. The overall composition reflects the Gothic artistic conventions of late 14th-century Scottish royal minting. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a standing figure of a robed and crowned lion rampant — the heraldic device from which the denomination takes its name — facing front with arms raised, holding crossed sceptres or standards surmounted by fleurs-de-lis, flanked by two additional fleurs-de-lis in the field. The figure stands upon a platform or footrest, rendered in the bold, slightly stylised manner typical of hammered medieval gold. A beaded inner circle frames the central design, beyond which the circumferential legend in uncial Gothic lettering carries the Christogram invocation. The legend reads XPC REGNAT XPC VINCIT XPC IMP, the Christus vincit formula widely used on medieval European royal coinage as an assertion of divine authority. |
