Obverse description Facing crowned bust of King Edward III at center, rendered in the flat, stylized manner characteristic of mid-14th-century English hammered coinage. The king is depicted full-face with curling hair falling to either side, wearing a plain crown with fleurs-de-lis. The bust is set within a plain inner circle, with a beaded border separating the central device from the surrounding legend. The Latin legend reads EDWARD ANGL R DNS HB, abbreviated from Edwardus Rex Angliae Dominus Hiberniae, with the French royal title omitted as is characteristic of the Treaty period coinage.
