(Translation: Elizabeth by the grace of God Queen of England, France and Ireland.)
Reverse description A crowned harp occupies the central field, with the date divided and placed to either side of the harp's base. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the Latin motto legend surrounding in the outer field. The initial mark, varying by emission — star (KM#6.1), trefoil (KM#6.2), or martlet (KM#6.3) — appears at the commencement of the reverse legend, serving as a useful diagnostic feature for distinguishing the three principal varieties.
