| Obverse description | Right-facing crowned effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after the portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicted with a diadem and wearing a necklace, her hair styled in soft curls. The engraver's initials 'IRB' appear below the truncation of the bust. The circular legend reads 'ELIZABETH II DEI GRA REGINA GIBRALTAR' around the upper periphery, with the date '2017' at the base of the field. The gold-plated surface imparts a rich, warm lustre to the finely detailed portrait. |

| Reverse description | Central device depicting the heraldic emblem of the House of Windsor: a royal crown surmounting a tower (the Tower of London) flanked by symmetrical laurel branches, all rendered in selective rhodium gilding against a gold-plated field. Surrounding the central device, arranged in two columns to form the field, is an excerpt from the Royal Proclamation of 1917 establishing the House of Windsor, presented in quotation marks. At the lower periphery, a curved banner bears the inscription 'ONE CROWN', with the dates '1917' and '2017' flanking the central device to mark the centenary of the proclamation. |
