| Obverse description | Crowned and draped bust of Queen Elizabeth I facing left, wearing a royal crown and an elaborate ruff collar with ornate dress, her hair visible beneath the crown. A mintmark cross appears above the legend at the top of the field. The effigy is rendered in the characteristic hammered style of the period, with fine detail in the crown and costume. A beaded inner circle frames the portrait, with the Latin legend distributed around the full circumference of the coin. |
