| Reverse description | Britannia is depicted seated in three-quarter profile facing right, helmeted and draped in classical robes. She rests her right hand upon a long trident held upright beside her, while her left arm leans on a large oval shield decorated with the Union Jack, placed at her side. The allegorical figure is rendered in a neoclassical style consistent with contemporary British coinage design. The Latin legend BRITANNIA. arcs around the upper field, and the design is framed by a beaded border. |
