Reverse description Central field depicts a mounted officer — evocative of the Duke of Wellington — seated astride a horse and wearing a bicorne hat and military frock coat, surveying the chaotic melee of the Battle of Waterloo below. Behind the equestrian figure, a densely populated battle scene shows infantry and cavalry in close combat before a farmhouse, recalling the strategically pivotal Hougoumont position. To the upper left of the field the millennium numeral '2000' is inscribed in an ornate style. The arched legend BATTLE OF WATERLOO 1815 frames the upper periphery, while the denomination 1 CROWN appears in bold raised lettering along the lower margin.
