| Reverse description | Bare-headed and diademed effigy of Queen Victoria facing left, after the original pattern portrait by Joseph Bonomi dating to 1837, the year of her accession. The young queen's hair is drawn back in a classical chignon secured with a band, and she wears a drop earring. The legend VICTORIA REG DEI GRA curves around the upper periphery within a star border, with the accession date 18 37 flanking the lower portion of the portrait in the field. The matte finish of the central field contrasts with the mirrored border, giving the design a distinctive two-tone proof appearance. |
