| 裏面の説明 | Central device depicts a crowned palm tree, its trunk rising from the ground with spreading fronds, symbolising resilience and endurance — a personal device associated with Mary Queen of Scots. Two horizontal banners or scrolls across the trunk bear the inscription GLORIA VIRES and DAT respectively, together reading DAT GLORIA VIRES (Glory gives strength). The date 1567 appears in the lower field below the tree. The surrounding circumferential legend, separated from the central device by a beaded inner circle, reads EXVRGAT DEVS & DISSIPENT INIMICI EI (Let God arise and let His enemies be scattered), a quotation from Psalm 68, rendered in punched Latin lettering. |

Mary I of Scotland was forced to abdicate in July 1567 — the same year this coin was struck — imprisoned at Lochleven Castle while her infant son was crowned James VI. Coinage produced in Edinburgh that year exists in an administrative limbo: issued under her authority but struck as her reign collapsed around her. The 5th Period designation reflects the final reclassification of her coinage types by later scholars, not any contemporary administrative boundary.
Spink 5430 is among the scarcer of her silver issues. Dies for this denomination were cut to a high standard, but the political upheaval of 1567 curtailed production sharply.
