The impressive figure of a bearded general stands on the right. He is fully dressed in his ornate attire. The hat of the gentleman on the left reveals that he is an official. Mountains, rocks, trees, a small house and an impressive building form the background. The deep-carved armorial shows an oak tree within a crown (Eastern coronet) which may be the crest of McGarel-Hogg, Baron Magheramorne. The crest is flanked by a bird on each side. The intricately fretted border is decorated with flowers, fruits, scrolling leaves and on the front two butterflies, symbols of a happy marriage. The counter dates from the Daoguang period (1820 – 1850). Width 4.6 cm. Height 3.4 cm. Thickness 0.29 cm.
