| Obverse description | Right-facing crowned effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, rendered in the third portrait by Raphael David Maklouf, depicting the Queen wearing the George IV State Diadem and a draped neckline with a pearl necklace. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the left periphery and GIBRALTAR along the right, with the date 2008 positioned at lower right. A fine beaded border encircles the design, and the engraver's initials RDM appear discreetly in the lower field beneath the bust. |

The aircraft name WESTLAND LYSANDER appears in two lines beneath the plan view. The arc legend HISTORY OF THE ROYAL AIR FORCE curves along the upper periphery, while ONE CROWN is inscribed in larger lettering along the lower arc. A beaded border frames the entire composition. |
