| Obverse description | Crowned and draped bust of King Charles I facing left, rendered in the fifth bust style (group E), with the king wearing a lace-falling band collar and royal robes. The portrait is executed in the characteristic hammered style of the Tower Mint, with a boldly struck crown surmounting the effigy. A beaded inner circle frames the design. The peripheral legend in Latin reads CAROLVS D G MA BR FR ET HI REX, interrupted by the mint mark, with the denomination numeral VI appearing to the right of the bust. |
