| Reverse description | A faithful replica of the Britannia design from the 1797 British Cartwheel Penny, depicting the seated allegorical figure of Britannia facing left, draped in classical robes and resting upon rocks at the water's edge. She holds an olive branch in her outstretched left hand and a trident in her right, with a large shield bearing a Union Jack device leaning against her side. A sailing ship appears in the left middle ground amid waves, evoking British maritime power. The legend BRITANNIA arcs prominently around the upper border, and the date 1797 appears in the lower exergue; the SOHO mint mark is visible beneath the figure, referencing the original Boulton & Watt Soho Mint striking. |
