| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a woodcock (Scolopax rusticola) in dynamic flight, shown in right profile with wings spread and long bill extended, rendered in naturalistic relief by engraver Percy Metcalfe. The denomination '1/4d' appears prominently in the upper field above the bird. The Irish-language denomination 'FEOIRLING' is inscribed in Gaelic lettering along the lower arc of the coin. The engraver's initials 'PM' are discreetly placed in the lower right field. A beaded border encircles the design. |
