Reverse description The quartered royal arms of England displayed on a plain shield, divided by a long cross extending to the beaded inner circle, with the arms of France ancient (fleurs-de-lis) in the first and fourth quarters and the arms of England (three passant guardant lions) in the second and third quarters. The shield is set within a beaded inner circle, and the entire design is enclosed by the circular Latin legend. The motto POSVI DEV ADIVTOREM MEV surrounds the shield, affirming the sovereign's reliance on divine assistance, with the mint mark positioned at the commencement of the legend at the top.
