Reverse description A large central intaglio vignette illustrates a pastoral sheep-farming scene, with a drover and several sheep rendered in fine relief engraving, framed by an ornate scrollwork border. To the left, a bold sterling pound symbol '£1' appears within an elaborate guilloche panel, while a blank oval occupies the right side. Numeral '1' cornerpieces and intricate lathe-work borders complete the design in a uniform green colour scheme.
