| Reverse description | A detailed portrait effigy of Diana, Princess of Wales, rendered as a forward-facing bust with her characteristic short swept hairstyle, occupies the central field. The commemorative legend 1961 - 1997 In Memoriam. Diana - The People's Princess curves around the upper periphery in a flowing italic script. The denomination $1 appears in the lower left field. The portrait is executed in high relief against a polished field, lending the design an medallic quality befitting this memorial issue. |
