| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is divided into three concentric zones struck in .999 fine silver and coloured titanium. The central silver disc depicts an image of the Earth. The middle ring is quartered into four differently coloured titanium sections, each featuring a Greek deity representing one of the classical four elements: Demeter for Earth (brown), Zeus for Air (light blue), Poseidon for Water (dark blue), and Hephaestus for Fire (purple), with each seated figure rendered in high relief. The outer silver ring portrays the twelve Signs of the Zodiac in relief, corresponding to the elemental associations of Earth, Air, Water, and Fire. The denomination 1 CROWN appears as a legend within the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Pobjoy Mint held a long-running license to produce collector coinage for several British territories and dependencies, and by 2008 had developed considerable expertise in titanium-clad technology — a process that allows selective coloring through heat oxidation rather than applied pigment. The Four Elements issue exploited this directly, using titanium's optical properties to produce distinct color zones that no conventional plating process could replicate.
KM#1401 is a Isle of Man issue. Pobjoy's titanium work from this period is technically accomplished, but the series was struck in large enough numbers for the collector market that survival rates are high.
