| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a scene commemorating the laying of the last stone of the Memorial Cairn at Pangbourne Chapel in honour of those who fell during the 1982 Falklands conflict. A hatted figure is shown placing a stone upon the cairn, rendered in fine relief, with an inscribed panel on the cairn face reading 'Laying Last stone Memorial Cairn Pangbourne Chapel'. A ribbon banner below carries the inscription FALKLANDS 1982. At the upper centre, the Royal Cypher — a crowned letter 'E' within a wreath — is prominently displayed. The arc legend SIXTY GLORIOUS YEARS runs along the upper periphery, and the denomination ONE CROWN appears in the lower field. |
