| Obverse description | Right-facing crowned effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after the fourth definitive portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicting the Queen wearing the George IV State Diadem, drop earrings, and a pearl necklace. The finely detailed bust occupies the central field, rendered with characteristic engraving precision. The circumferential legend reads H.M. QUEEN ELIZABETH II TRISTAN DA CUNHA, with the date 2016 positioned in the lower exergue. A beaded inner border frames the design, and the engraver's initials IRB appear below the truncation of the bust. |

| Reverse description | Three Short Stirling four-engined heavy bombers depicted in dynamic formation flight across the central field, commemorating the 75th anniversary of the aircraft's introduction to RAF service. At the upper field, a stylised winged emblem bearing the inscription 75TH within a circular device and surmounted by a five-pointed star serves as the commemorative centrepiece. The upper legend STIRLING arcs above the winged device, while the denomination ONE CROWN is inscribed along the lower margin. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded inner border. |
