Reverse description A boldly rendered Griffin — a heraldic beast with the body and hindquarters of a lion and the head, forelegs, and wings of an eagle — is depicted passant, its wings raised, standing over a crowned shield bearing the quartered arms of the House of Windsor. The design references the royal badge of Edward III, one of the ten Queen's Beasts series. The surrounding legend identifies the creature and specifies the coin's bullion specifications, with the date and engraver's initials completing the inscription.
