| Reverse description | Idealized draped and crowned bust of Queen Victoria facing left, closely modelled after William Wyon's celebrated Gothic Crown portrait of 1847. The Queen is depicted wearing an ornate Imperial crown and richly embellished robes decorated with heraldic floral motifs including roses, with a jewelled necklace visible at the décolletage. The legend, rendered in Fraktur blackletter script, curves around the portrait within a beaded inner border, evoking the aesthetic of the original Victorian Gothic coinage. The engraver's initials W.W. appear beneath the bust truncation. |
