A circular gold coin centers a rose surrounded by four crowned shields in a cross formation. Ornate scepters radiate from the center between each shield. Clockwise from our top, the shields display three lions, a lion rampant, or standing lion, three fleur-de-lis, and a harp. Latin text, MAG BR FRA ET HIB REG 1703, encircles the border. The warm gold surface is set against a dark, textured background.
