Reverse description A large Irish harp surmounted by a royal crown occupies the center of the field, contained within a beaded inner circle. The harp is depicted with multiple strings and a characteristic triangular forepillar, rendered in the bold, somewhat crude style typical of late Elizabethan Irish hammered coinage. The Latin motto legend encircles the central device between the beaded inner circle and the irregular flan edge, reading clockwise.
