| Reverse description | A finely detailed depiction of a British Shorthair cat in a crouching, forward-stepping pose occupies the central field, rendered with careful attention to the breed's characteristic compact musculature and dense coat. A smaller cat figure appears to the right in the background, suggesting a kitten or companion animal. The Pobjoy Mint shield hallmark is visible in the upper field above the cat. Below the central design, the denomination inscription Pt 1/25 oz. CROWN is displayed, with decorative elements flanking the legend.
