Obverse description Right-facing uncrowned effigy of King Charles III occupies the central field, rendered in high relief with a plain truncation. The portrait, modelled by Raphael David Maklouf, presents the King in a dignified, unadorned style consistent with his official coinage portraits. A continuous circular legend surrounds the effigy, reading CHARLES III · D·G·REX · F·D· GIBRALTAR · 2024, with ONE CROWN inscribed along the lower arc. The gold-plated proof finish imparts a deeply lustrous, mirror-like quality to the field contrasting with the frosted devices.

Reverse description The reverse features a colorized photographic portrait of Winston Churchill as a young politician in the left portion of the field, depicted in black and white tones against a warm amber-colored background panel. To the right, a raised gold-plated sculptural effigy of Churchill in later life is shown in three-quarter view, wearing a suit and bow tie, rendered in proof relief. The legend WINSTON CHURCHILL arcs across the upper field in bold lettering, and the dates 1874 - 1965 appear along the lower exergue, commemorating his birth and death years.
