| Reverse description | The reverse presents a contemporary artistic composition commemorating the 75th anniversary of VE Day. At centre-right, a portrait of Sir Winston Churchill is formed entirely from the micro-engraved text of his famous wartime speeches, creating a striking typographic effigy effect in the mirror-polished field. To the left, the phrase 'We shall fight on the beaches' is rendered in flowing cursive script. Along the lower periphery, the inscription WORDS THAT WON THE WAR ... appears in capital letters. A decorative border of alternating fleur-de-lis and dash motifs frames the design, with a small triangular finial at the apex. |
