Reverse description The reverse takes the form of a stylised poppy bloom, with the coin itself struck in the shape of the flower. At the centre of the poppy, the numeral '90' appears prominently within a circular field, commemorating the 90th anniversary of the Armistice, flanked by the legend 'LEST WE FORGET'. The denomination 'TEN POUNDS' is inscribed within the design, and the Roman numeral sequence 'XI XI XI' appears at the base of the central disc, referencing the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month — the moment the Armistice came into effect — accompanied by the legend 'HOUR DAY MONTH'. Selective gold plating highlights key design elements, enhancing the commemorative character of the issue.
