| 背面描述 | The central field presents a bold tripartite composition commemorating the three pillars of the Duke of Edinburgh's Award Scheme: at upper left, a nurse tends to a bedridden patient, representing the community service element; at upper right, two hikers with rucksacks traverse rugged terrain, representing the expedition and physical activity elements; at lower centre, a swimmer executes a front crawl stroke through stylised waves, representing the physical fitness element. A tall obelisk or spire rises at the centre, unifying the three scenes. The surrounding legend reads DUKE OF EDINBURGH AWARD SCHEME along the upper arc, flanked by a rope-and-chain decorative border, with the dates 1956 and 1981 and the denomination ONE CROWN inscribed along the lower arc. |

The Duke of Edinburgh's Award marked its 25th anniversary in 1981, providing the occasion for this issue. Founded by Prince Philip in 1956 — with substantial organizational input from Kurt Hahn, the German educationalist who had earlier founded Gordonstoun — the scheme was initially met with skepticism in some quarters as a structured response to what Philip perceived as a lack of purposeful challenge in postwar British youth culture.
Pobjoy struck this platinum proof in extremely limited numbers. At 52 grams of .950 platinum, the metal cost alone at 1981 spot prices made this one of the most expensive commemorative coins produced by any private British mint to that point.
