Obverse. A one-masted ship on the waves with mainsail furled, an embattled crow’s nest, above which a triple banner pendant. On the embattled forecastle, a flag (lower in hoist than in fly) bearing the three lions of ENGLAND (more usually dimidiated with the hulks of three ships), for the Barons of the CINQUE PORTS. In a similar stern castle, two standing marines each blowing a trumpet. In the ship are, dext. two other marines, one hauling in the bowsprit, the other coiling a rope; sin. yet two more sailors, one climbing the rigging, the other managing the quarter-rudder, which is unusually being slung on the port side.
