| 正面描述 | Facing crowned bust of David II in high relief, the king depicted with flowing hair and a prominent crown adorned with fleurs. A sceptre appears to the left of the effigy. The bust is rendered in the bold, somewhat stylised manner typical of mid-14th century Scottish hammered coinage, with a beaded inner circle framing the portrait. The circular legend in uncial Latin characters surrounds the design within the outer border. |

| 背面描述 | A long voided cross extending to the inner beaded circle divides the reverse into four quarters, each containing a six-pointed mullet (star). A second beaded circle frames the central motif, with the legend in uncial Latin characters occupying the outer field. The design follows the standard English sterling penny format adopted for Scottish coinage of this period, with the cross serving both as a decorative and religious element. |

David II returned to Scotland in 1341 after years of exile in France, then spent eleven of the next sixteen years as a prisoner in England following his capture at Neville's Cross in 1346. This second issue of his first coinage was struck during that captivity, with the Scottish mint operating under regency government while ransom negotiations with Edward III dragged on — a ransom eventually set at the staggering sum of 100,000 merks in the 1357 Treaty of Berwick, the very year this issue ended.
