| Reverse description | The central field depicts a large Neanderthal skull dominating the upper left, commemorating the famous Gibraltar Skull discovered in 1848, juxtaposed with a standing figure of a prehistoric human male at the right, carrying a spear, and a stylised rendering of the Rock of Gibraltar in the lower centre. The date 1848 appears in the mid-field. A rectangular cartouche in the lower field bears the inscription GIBRALTAR SKULL 115,000 YEARS, with the denomination 1 CROWN beneath. The legend EVOLUTION OF MANKIND arcs along the left and upper border. |
