Reverse description Central depiction of the Gloster Whittle E.28/39 jet aircraft in three-quarter view on a taxiway, set against a stylised background of billowing clouds. The inscription BICENTENARY OF MANNED FLIGHT arcs along the upper periphery, with ONE CROWN along the lower periphery. Below the aircraft, the legend GLOSTER WHITTLE JET appears in a straight line, with the date 1941 — commemorating the aircraft's first flight — beneath it. A small Manx triskelion emblem appears at the top of the coin above the legend, and decorative foliate devices flank the lower legend.
