| Obverse description | Conjoined facing busts of Philip and Mary within a central inner circle, surmounted by a single crown; the date appears in the exergue below the portraits. The monarchs are depicted in a frontal, stylised manner characteristic of mid-Tudor hammered coinage, with the royal legend surrounding the inner circle in the outer field. |
