| Reverse description | A three-masted sailing ship is depicted in profile, filling the central field, with fully rigged sails and pennants flying from each mast. A row of prominent circular portholes is visible along the gun deck of the hull, a distinctive and well-known feature of this coinage type. The hull and rigging are rendered with considerable detail for a hammered issue of this period, conveying the maritime character of the Bermuda colony. No legend appears on the reverse, the composition being entirely pictorial within a plain border. |
