The Calais Mint is depicted only by the letter C for Calais at the centre of the reverse on this coin as opposed to the majority which also have a flag at the stern of the ship. The abbreviated Latin legends translate as on the obverse "Edward by the Grace of God, King of England, Lord of Ireland and Aquitaine"; and on the reverse "But Jesus, passing through the midst of them, went His way" taken from the Bible.
