Beschrijving voorzijde Facing crowned bust of King Edward IV in high relief, rendered in the crude but vigorous style characteristic of late medieval English hammered coinage. The king wears an ornate crown with fleurs-de-lis and crosses, and the effigy is depicted with a stylised frontal face framed by flowing hair. A pellet or mintmark letter 'G' appears to the left of the neck and a key symbol to the right, serving as mintmaster or mint identifiers. The surrounding legend is rendered in Gothic uncial characters and reads EDWARD DI GRA REX ANG(L), denoting Edward by the Grace of God King of England. The legend is contained within a beaded inner circle, typical of the Light coinage issue.

Opschrift voorzijde EDWARD DI GRA REX ANG(L)
(Translation: Edward by the Grace of God King of England)
Beschrijving keerzijde A long cross pattée extending to the inner beaded circle divides the field into four quarters, each containing three pellets arranged in a trefoil pattern, a hallmark of late medieval English penny design. A quatrefoil appears at the centre of the cross intersection, serving as a mint or issue identifier. The overall composition is bold and symmetrical, with the pellets clearly struck in the fields. The surrounding legend, rendered in Gothic uncial script, reads CIVI TAS EBO RACI, identifying the mint city of York, with the legend divided by the arms of the cross in the standard fashion for this series. A beaded inner circle borders the design.
