| Reverse description | Central device comprises the royal cypher IR (Iacobus Rex) surmounted by a detailed imperial crown, with the numeral VI placed above the crown denoting the sixpence denomination. The month of issue, Feb., is inscribed in cursive script below the cypher, a distinctive feature of the Gun Money coinage identifying the month of production. A circular Latin legend reads MAG·BR·FRA·ET·HIB·REX· with the date 1689 incorporated into the legend at the top of the coin. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. |
