The abbreviated Latin legends translate as on the obverse "James by the Grace of God, King of Great Britain, France and Ireland" and on the reverse as "Henry united the Roses, James the Kingdoms", a legend that is exclusive to this reign. The original surviving Mint accounts show that £148,755 of 22 carat crown gold was struck for the period 1st April 1618 until 31st March 1619.
