| Reverse description | The full royal arms of England and France quarterly, borne on a large ornate shield, centred within an elaborate double Tudor rose composed of inner and outer rows of petals rendered in high relief with intricate foliate scrollwork filling the interstices. Small floral sprigs and decorative devices appear between the petals of the rose. The entire design is enclosed by a circumferential legend in Gothic uncial lettering within a beaded border, the whole presenting a bold and majestic composition emblematic of early Tudor dynastic ambition. |
