| Obverse description | The Gibraltar coat of arms rendered in high relief at center, depicting the quartered royal shield supported by a crowned lion rampant to the left and a unicorn passant to the right, with the Castle of Gibraltar featured in the base compartment. The legend GIBRALTAR arcs along the upper rim, while the fineness AU 999 appears to the right field and the weight 0.5g to the left field. The date 2020 is inscribed in the lower exergue. The polished proof fields provide strong contrast to the finely detailed armorial design. |

| Reverse description | A Fairbairn-Sykes fighting knife is depicted at center, its double-edged blade and distinctive foil grip rendered in sharp relief against a partial Union Flag backdrop. A ribbon banner inscribed 1930-2020 overlays the composition, commemorating eight decades of the British Commandos. The surrounding legend COMMANDOS EIGHTY YEARS arcs along the upper periphery, with ONE POUND along the lower rim. The overall design conveys a strong military commemorative theme befitting this special issue. |
