Reverse description Depiction inspired by the Bayeux Tapestry illustrating the death of King Harold II at the Battle of Hastings, showing the king struck by a Norman arrow. The scene is rendered in the embroidery-style artistic convention of the original tapestry. The Latin inscription HIC HAROLD REX INTERFECTUS EST, meaning 'Here King Harold is slain,' appears as the primary legend, closely echoing the wording of the original tapestry panel.
