| Obverse script | Latin |
| Obverse lettering | HON. T. ERSKINE |
| Reverse description | The reverse bears a five-line political inscription centered across the field in bold raised Latin capitals, reading A FRIEND / TO FREEDOM / & RIGHTS OF MAN., the text filling the entire die area without border or decorative device. The forthright typographic layout, typical of late 18th-century English political tradesman's tokens, reflects the reformist sympathies associated with Thomas Erskine. No wreath, frame, or exergual line is present. |
