Obverse description Facing crowned royal effigy of Edward I rendered in profile within a beaded triangle, with a trefoil of pellets positioned below the bust. The legend, inscribed in three segmented parts along the inner edges of the triangle, identifies the king in abbreviated Latin. The portrait is executed in the stylised hammered tradition characteristic of late 13th-century Anglo-Irish coinage, with bold, linear features and a prominent crown. The overall composition reflects the triangular flan format distinctive of this Irish issue.
