| Reverse description | Blank reverse trial piece struck in lead, showing an entirely uninscribed and unadorned field with no devices, legends, or design elements. The surface exhibits the characteristic dull grey lustre and softness typical of a lead planchet used for die-trial purposes. This reverse trial was produced to test the obverse die in isolation, confirming correct strike depth and alignment prior to final coin production. |
