| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features a crowned Irish harp in high relief, flanked on either side by crowned royal initials 'h' and 'A' (for Henricus and Anna), each surmounted by a small crown, referencing Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn. The harp is rendered in the characteristic late medieval Irish style with detailed string work. A beaded inner circle frames the central device, beyond which runs a Latin legend in Gothic lettering. This obverse design is historically significant as one of very few Irish coins to bear the monogram of Anne Boleyn. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued during the window between Anne Boleyn's formal recognition as queen and her execution in May 1536, this Irish groat is one of the few circulating coin types to bear her designation as queen consort. Henry's Irish coinage was already debased and administratively chaotic before the Reformation crisis compounded matters; the Dublin mint operated under chronic underfunding. Anne's name appears on precious few coin types from any issuing authority, making survivorship of this specific pairing historically pointed.
