| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, as produced exclusively by the Pobjoy Mint, occupies the central field. The legend 'ELIZABETH·II·2018' is inscribed along the upper periphery, with 'ASCENSION ISLAND' and the Pobjoy Mint mark 'PM' appearing in the lower field. The portrait is rendered in a refined, medallic style characteristic of late-reign Pobjoy Mint issues. |

| Reverse description | The central device presents an amalgamation of the Great Seals of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth II, with the silhouetted profile of King George VI superimposed upon or alongside imagery symbolic of the Coronation, representing Her Majesty ascending to the throne in succession to her father. The composition is enclosed within an outer annular ring selectively plated in gold, adding a striking visual contrast to the copper-nickel substrate. The denomination '1 CROWN' and the royal cypher 'EIIR' appear as the principal reverse inscriptions. The overall design commemorates the 65th anniversary of Her Majesty's Coronation, known as the Sapphire Coronation anniversary. |
