| Obverse lettering | CHARLES III·D·G·REX·F·D·500 POUNDS·2023 MJ (Translation: Charles the Third by the Grace of God King Defender of the Faith) |
| Reverse description | Laureate and draped bust of King Charles II facing right, faithfully reproduced from Thomas Simon's celebrated 1663 Petition Crown design, rendered in exceptionally high sculptural relief. The king is depicted with flowing long curls and a laurel wreath, wearing a classically draped mantle with rich surface detail. The legend CAROLVS II · DEI · GRA · is distributed around the upper and right periphery, with the engraver's signature Simon appearing in script below the truncation. The inner border features a fine toothed graining, and the overall composition closely follows the original seventeenth-century petition piece. |
