| Reverse description | Seated allegorical figure of Britannia facing left, holding a long trident in her left hand and an olive branch in her right, with an oval shield bearing the Union flag resting at her right side. A three-masted sailing ship appears in the background to the left, symbolising British naval power. The legend BRITANNIA and the mint name SOHO arc above the figure, with the date 1799 placed in the exergue below. The design is enclosed within a toothed border, characteristic of Küchler's work for the Soho Mint. |
