| Reverse description | Central motif depicts a finely detailed right-facing bust of a red deer stag, with an impressive full rack of antlers rising prominently above the head and filling the upper field. The stag's head is rendered in high relief with naturalistic detailing of the mane, facial features, and musculature, set against a deeply mirrored proof field. A fine beaded inner border encircles the design, and the denomination legend PUNT is inscribed in raised Latin lettering along the lower portion of the field beneath the stag's portrait. The reverse exhibits strong contrast between frosted devices and the polished background. |

| Additional information |
No such coin exists in any official capacity. Northern Ireland has never issued its own currency — it uses pound sterling, not the punt, which was the Republic of Ireland's pre-euro unit. A silver-plated iron 40mm piece attributed this way is almost certainly a fantasy piece or a novelty souvenir rather than a legitimate numismatic issue.
