| Beschrijving keerzijde | The central field features a full-color photographic depiction of HMS Hermes, the Royal Navy conventional aircraft carrier, shown at anchor in harbour with small watercraft visible in the surrounding waters. The color insert is framed by a fine rope border and flanked by symmetrical laurel branch ornaments extending across the lower field. The ship's distinctive island superstructure and angled flight deck are clearly rendered. The legend HMS HERMES arcs across the upper rim in raised Latin lettering, while the service dates 1959 - 1984 are inscribed along the lower rim, separated by a central dot. A beaded border encircles the entire reverse design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
HMS Hermes served as the flagship of the British task force dispatched to retake the Falkland Islands in 1982, despite serious Admiralty debate about whether the aging carrier — commissioned in 1959 and repeatedly slated for decommissioning — should be sent at all. She was sold to India in 1986, refitted as INS Viraat, and finally decommissioned by the Indian Navy in 2017, two years after this piece was struck.
