Obverse description The arms of Dover and the Cinque Ports displayed within a trefoil (trilobe) framework, featuring three lobed compartments: the upper lobe contains the quartered shield with lions and historic ships, the lower-left lobe depicts a medieval vessel at sea with a fortified tower, and the lower-right lobe shows an equestrian figure before a Gothic architectural backdrop. The trefoil is set against a star-shaped ground decorated with foliate sprays and small stars, with a scroll above the central shield bearing the legend CIVITAS DOVORIA.
