| Reverse description | The central field features a highly detailed, botanically accurate depiction of a Flanders field poppy (Papaver rhoeas) in full bloom, with delicate petals and a prominent seed head, as designed by botanical artist Margaret Stevens and inspired by the poem 'In Flanders Fields'. The composition is framed by additional poppy stems and foliage extending across the field. Commemorative inscriptions referencing the WWI Centenary and the motto LEST WE FORGET appear within the design. The overall composition evokes the enduring symbolism of the red poppy as a universal emblem of remembrance. |
