| Reverse description | A quartered royal shield of arms superimposed over a cross fourchée, dividing the field into four sections. The shield displays the heraldic arms of England and France quarterly, as was standard for Elizabethan coinage. A circular Latin legend reading CIVITAS LONDON surrounds the central device, identifying the London mint. No date appears on the reverse, which is typical for hammered pennies of this reign. |
