Reverse description A vivid full-color scene commemorating the 1916 Battle of the Somme, depicting a crew of uniformed British soldiers operating a field artillery piece, with spent brass shell casings scattered across the foreground. Above the main colored vignette, a monochrome relief panel depicts infantrymen advancing through barbed wire across a blasted landscape. The upper legend arcs 'FIRST WORLD WAR CENTENARY' around the rim, while a cartouche at the base bears the inscription '1916 BATTLE OF THE SOMME'. The combination of polychrome color application and engraved relief creates a dramatic commemorative composition.
