| Reverse description | Two heraldic shields, each bearing the Royal Arms of the United Kingdom, are depicted face-to-face at the centre of the field, surmounted by matching royal crowns and joined at their bases by a scrolled ribbon banner. The composition commemorates the Platinum Wedding Anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip. The upper legend reads ELIZABETH · AND · PHILIP · 1947 · 2017, while the lower arc carries the denomination QUARTER SOVEREIGN. The motto HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE is inscribed on the ribbon banner between the shields. The reverse features a distinctive dark oxidised background field contrasting with the polished gold relief elements, creating a striking two-tone proof effect. |
