| Beschrijving keerzijde | Three-quarter facing portrait of Sir Winston Churchill depicted in characteristic wartime attire, cigar in hand and raising his right hand in the famous V for Victory gesture. The figure is rendered in bold relief, conveying authority and resolve. The arc legend SIR WINSTON CHURCHILL · 1874-1965 curves along the upper periphery, with the celebrated phrase WE SHALL NEVER SURRENDER inscribed beneath it, following the contour of the design. A fine beaded inner rim frames the composition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Churchill's connection to Gibraltar runs deeper than wartime symbolism. He visited the Rock in 1943 en route to North Africa, and the territory's strategic survival during the Siege of Gibraltar — which Churchill actively directed resupply efforts to sustain — made it a cause he considered personally vital. The quarter sovereign format revives a denomination that had effectively disappeared from British coinage after 1918, making its modern iterations in Gibraltar something of a numismatic anomaly rather than a continuation of any unbroken tradition.
