She rests against a bale or support and holds a harp at her right side, a traditional Irish emblem, while a set of scales of justice is visible to her left. Above, the issuer's name arcs in the legend W . Mc KENZIE, with COLERAINE completing the inscription along the lower periphery. The design is contained within a dentilated border.

Reverse description The reverse displays the denomination and date arranged in three horizontal lines — ONE / PENNY / TOKEN — set within an ornate wreath composed of laurel branches on the left and a floral spray on the right, tied at the base with a ribbon bow. The date 1813 appears in the exergual area below the wreath, flanked by floral ornaments. The entire design is enclosed within a dentilated border, consistent with the provincial token coinage style of the period.
