| Reverse description | The full Royal Arms of the United Kingdom displayed at centre, depicting a quartered shield with the arms of England, Scotland, and Ireland, supported on the dexter by a crowned lion and on the sinister by a unicorn chained, all set upon a grassy compartment with the Garter motto below.
