| 裏面の説明 | Central device comprises a crowned thistle plant, the stem rising from the base of the flan and terminating beneath a royal crown with fleur-de-lis finials, flanked on either side by the royal cipher 'I R' (Iacobus Rex) in large majuscule letters. Four thistle heads radiate from the central stem in a cross-like arrangement, filling the quadrants of the field. The surrounding circular Latin legend, which incorporates the date 1581, is separated from the central device by a plain inner border and rendered in the same Gothic-influenced majuscule as the obverse. The flan exhibits the characteristic irregular contour of hammered coinage. |

The 3rd Coinage of James VI followed the monetary reforms of 1581, when the Scottish crown undertook a significant revaluation that reset the relationship between Scottish and English currency. The 4 Shilling piece was a new denomination introduced as part of that restructuring — it had no direct predecessor in earlier Scottish series.
Edinburgh was Scotland's sole functioning mint at this point, having absorbed the operations of other regional mints decades earlier.
