Reverse description The central field features an elaborate wreathing of grapevines with bunches of grapes and lobed vine leaves rendered in relief, encircled by a plain inner ring. The legend VICTORIA arcs across the upper field with the date 1862 at the top centre. The Latin motto IN VINO VERITAS (meaning 'In wine is truth') is distributed around the lower portion of the legend. The maker's name STOKES appears within the vine design at centre. The whole is enclosed by a beaded border.
