| Obverse description | A triple thistle plant rises from a single stem at the centre of the field, displaying one large thistle head at the apex and two smaller lateral heads, all rendered with characteristic cross-hatched texture on the capitula and naturalistic acanthus-like foliage. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding legend reads CAROLVS D G MAG BRIT, interrupted by pellet stops, identifying Charles as King of Great Britain. |
