| 表面の説明 | Right-facing laureate and draped bust of King Charles II occupying most of the field, with the Roman numeral denomination IIII appearing behind the head to the right. The effigy is rendered in high relief in the milled style introduced by the Roettier workshop. A continuous Latin legend runs around the periphery without an inner circle, lending the design an open, unframed character characteristic of the early milled English series. |

The milled fourpence belongs to the first generation of mechanically produced English silver coinage, introduced after the Restoration as part of a deliberate effort to end the chronic clipping that had plagued hammered coin. Thomas Simon, the Commonwealth's engraver, competed directly against the imported Dutch craftsman Jan Roettier for the contract — a rivalry that produced Simon's famous "petition crown," struck as an unsolicited demonstration of his skill. Roettier won anyway.
These small silver pieces circulated heavily in the Maundy tradition even outside the formal ceremony, and genuine wear on surviving examples is common.
