| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a scene commemorating the Battle of St Albans, one of the opening engagements of the Wars of the Roses, with armoured combatants rendered in detailed relief. A central cameo or inset device incorporates the symbolic red and white roses representing the rival Houses of Lancaster and York respectively. The denomination 'ONE CROWN' appears in the lower portion of the field, and the series title 'THE WARS OF THE ROSES' arcs along the upper legend. The overall composition blends historical narrative imagery with heraldic floral symbolism. |
