| Reverse description | The Calvert family coat of arms displayed on a small shield at center, comprising the characteristic quarterly design of alternating paly and bendy lozengy fields, surmounted by a baronial crown. The shield is set within a circular Latin legend reading CRESCITE ET MVLTIPLICAMINI, a biblical motto meaning 'Be fruitful and multiply.' The Roman numeral IV, denoting the denomination of four pence, appears flanking the shield in the field to either side. The reverse exhibits a milled or toothed border around the coin's periphery. |
