| Reverse description | Central design features the royal arms of Scotland and England arranged in a crowned shield, quartering the lions of England with the lion rampant of Scotland and the harp of Ireland, set within a beaded inner circle. Two interlinked Cs beneath the crown flank the shield, forming a decorative royal cipher. The circumferential Latin legend QVÆ · DEVS · CONIVNXIT · NEMO · SEPARET — derived from the Gospel of Matthew and denoting the union of the crowns — encircles the entire device. The reverse composition reflects the political and religious symbolism central to Stuart coinage, asserting the divine sanction of the union of the British kingdoms. |
