 Testoons issued during the reign of Henry VII feature a right-facing portrait of the king on the obverse.Surrounding the portrait is the inscription , or similar, meaning ""Henry, by the Grace of God, King of England and France"".All shillings minted under subsequent kings and queens bear a similar inscription on the obverse identifying the monarch (or Lord Protector during the Commonwealth), with the portrait usually flipping left-facing to right-facing or vice versa between monarchs.
