| Reverse description | An allegorical coronation scene depicted in finely struck relief: the king seated left on a throne receives a crown held aloft by a winged Victory figure at right, while three standing female allegorical figures — Britannia, Hibernia, and Scotia — approach from the left, their hands extended toward an altar. The legend arcs across the upper field, with the date and year inscribed in three lines within the exergue below a horizontal ground line. |
