The truncation of the bust is clean and unadorned. A continuous Latin legend encircles the effigy within a beaded border, reading from the lower left and running clockwise around the field.

Aanvullende informatie

Maundy money was never intended for circulation — distributed annually by the sovereign at the Royal Maundy ceremony, these pieces passed directly from the mint to the recipients, elderly men and women chosen for long service or community contribution. Under Edward VII, the ceremony retained its formal structure but the king's deteriorating health meant he occasionally delegated distribution duties, a quiet departure from centuries of direct royal participation.

Because Maundy sets are preserved almost from the moment of issue, the survival rate in pristine condition is extraordinarily high relative to mintage.
