Reverse description The reverse presents a dynamic and intricately detailed depiction of Britannia standing triumphant in a chariot drawn by two seahorses (hippocampi) surging through ocean waves. Britannia is rendered in flowing classical drapery, wearing a crested Corinthian helmet, raising a trident in her right hand and bearing a shield emblazoned with a Union Jack motif on her left arm. A lion's mask roundel adorns the front of the chariot. The upper legend reads 'BRITANNIA · 1/10 OZ 999.9 · FINE GOLD', with the date '2023' inscribed in the lower field and the engraver's initials 'J.O.' for Jonathan Olliffe placed to the lower right of the central design.
