| Obverse description | The central device depicts The Morrigan, an armored female figure from Irish mythology, standing in high relief amid a dramatic battlefield scene with crows in flight surrounding her. She holds a spear and is clad in scale armor and a flowing robe, with additional ravens and a wolf visible in the field. The design, based on artwork by Howard David Johnson, fills the entire field with no border legend. |

| Reverse description | The central field features a bold Celtic knotwork device in a diamond-shaped interlaced pattern. The legend 'CELTIC LORE' arcs across the upper field, while the weight and purity inscription appears in the lower field. Two wolf or dragon heads emerge from an intricately braided Celtic rope border that encircles the entire reverse, with the knotwork border continuing around the full rim. |
