| Reverse description | Central design depicts a full-length figure of a medieval English longbowman in dynamic stance, clad in chainmail armour, padded gambeson, and plate leg armour, drawing a longbow fully at full draw with an arrow nocked and aimed. The warrior stands atop a rocky, grassy ground line rendered in fine relief. The series title WARRIORS OF THE WORLD arcs along the upper periphery in bold raised Latin lettering, while the identifier ENGLISH ARCHER is inscribed along the lower periphery. The high-relief figure is finely detailed, capturing the characteristic equipment and posture of the English archers famous at battles such as Agincourt. |
