| Reverse description | The reverse retains the design of the host coin, which based on the visible imagery appears to be a British silver coin of the Victorian era, circa 1850. A crowned oval shield or cartouche is displayed at the top center, flanked by a wreath composed of olive branches on the left and oak branches on the right, tied at the base with a ribbon. The word PENCE appears in the center field within the wreath, with the date 1850 inscribed at the lower margin. The rim is bordered by a fine beaded or dentilated edge. The host coin's legends and original design elements are partially effaced or obscured by the countermarking process. |
