| Reverse description | A dynamic naval scene depicting multiple sailing warships of the line engaged in battle, rendered in high relief against deeply mirrored proof fields, commemorating the Battle of Trafalgar of 21 October 1805. The principal vessel, identified as HMS Victory, dominates the central composition with full sails set and gun ports visible along its hull, surrounded by further men-of-war in the heat of engagement. A circular privy mark in the lower right quadrant bears a portrait bust of Admiral Lord Nelson in profile, wearing his cocked hat. The curved legend THE BATTLE OF TRAFALGAR arcs across the upper field, while the denomination TEN POUNDS is inscribed in the lower exergue. |
