| Reverse description | A crowned Irish harp occupies the central field, set within a beaded inner circle. The harp is depicted with characteristic detail of early Jacobean Irish coinage, showing the forepillar and strings clearly rendered. Above the harp, a royal crown extends slightly beyond the inner circle toward the legend. The reverse legend runs between the inner and outer beaded borders in Latin characters. This reverse type is distinctive to the Irish shilling coinage issued for James I from the Tower Mint. |
