| Reverse description | A finely modelled bust of Lord Byron is depicted in three-quarter right-facing view, rendered in high sculptural relief with detailed treatment of his characteristic curly hair, open collar, and cravat. The portrait is framed by a continuous Greek meander (key) border running along the inner rim, evoking classical antiquity and Byron's deep connection to Greece. The legend 'LORD BYRON' is inscribed vertically along the upper right field in Latin characters, while 'ΛΟΡΔΟΣ ΒΥΡΩΝ 1788–1824' curves along the lower arc in Greek and Latin characters, recording the poet's birth and death years. The year of issue '2022' appears to the left of the bust in the field. A small mint mark or decorative device is visible to the right of the portrait. |
