Obverse

A gold Maltese-style cross with ornate scrollwork engraving on the four arms. At the center is a raised, shield-shaped escutcheon featuring blue and black vitreous enamel. The shield displays three five-pointed stars (mullets) in the upper black section and a "Golden Fleece" (a sheep suspended by a middle band) in the lower blue section—elements derived from the Coat of Arms of Leeds.
