| Beschrijving keerzijde | The central device depicts the English shield of arms — three passant guardant lions arranged in pale — surmounted by a royal crown, closely replicating the heraldic motif that appeared on the reverse of the British English shilling from 1953 to 1966. To the right of the shield, a small cartouche bears the £sd abbreviation in reference to the pre-decimal currency system. The legend FID DEF flanks the crown at upper left and right, while the inscription ONE SHILLING curves along the left and lower fields. The outer legend BRITAIN'S LAST PRE-DECIMAL COINAGE arcs around the upper periphery, and a scroll banner at the base carries the commemorative date range 1971–2021, marking the fiftieth anniversary of British decimalisation. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This piece belongs to Gibraltar's long-running series revisiting pre-decimal British coinage designs, issued under the royal licence that has allowed the territory to produce commemorative and collector material well beyond what its domestic circulation needs would ever demand. The specific design referenced here traces back to the English shilling of 1937–1952, which carried distinct English and Scottish reverse variants — a distinction that generated genuine administrative headache at the Bank of England, as the two types circulated interchangeably despite the regional sensitivities involved.
