Reverse description A large floriated cross occupies the full field of the reverse, its four arms terminating in trefoil or floral finials and extending to the coin's edge. At the centre of the cross is a small panel containing the letter R, serving as a reference to the king's initial. In each of the four angles formed by the arms of the cross sits a crowned leopard passant, a heraldic device associated with the English royal arms. The marginal legend in uncial Latin script encircles the design, derived from the Gospel of Luke. The composition is typical of the English noble reverse tradition, emphasizing heraldic symmetry and religious symbolism.
