| Obverse description | Fifth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, depicted wearing the George IV State Diadem, as designed by Jody Clark. The truncation of the bust is unadorned, and the portrait is rendered in high relief consistent with the proof finish. The sovereign's titles appear as a continuous legend encircling the effigy within the coin's field, with the face value incorporated into the inscription. The engraver's initials 'JC' appear below the portrait truncation. |

| Reverse description | The reverse bears a bold depiction of the Red Dragon of Wales passant, rearing dramatically above the historic quartered shield of arms attributed to Llewelyn the Great, Prince of Wales. The dragon is rendered with considerable heraldic detail, its wings displayed and tail curled, occupying the central field in high sculptural relief. The legend 'RED DRAGON OF WALES' arcs around the design, flanked by the date '2018' and the engraver's initials 'JC'. The composition draws on deep Welsh heraldic tradition, presenting the device as a proud national symbol within a circular border. |
