| Reverse description | The reverse presents the Scottish crest design by George Kruger Gray, featuring a crowned lion sejant erect guardant, holding a sword in its right paw and a sceptre in its left, seated atop a heraldic crown. The date is divided by the lion's body, with the numerals appearing in the fields to either side. Two heraldic shields flank the central device. The legend FID:DEF arcs across the upper field, and the denomination ONE SHILLING is inscribed along the lower periphery, separated from the design by small ornamental stops. |
