| Obverse description | The Royal Mint badge — depicting the Tower of London with flanking turrets and cross finials within a rectangular frame — is struck at centre, with the numeral '2' punched over the device in a large, bold format, partially obscuring the underlying motif. The plain field surrounding the devices is unadorned and bears no legend or inscription. This composition is characteristic of a trial or test striking produced to evaluate coin specifications prior to formal issue. |

| Reverse description | The Royal Mint badge, depicting the Tower of London with two flanking turrets surmounted by cross finials and a crenellated central structure, all contained within a plain rectangular frame, is struck at centre in the otherwise entirely plain and unlettered field. No legend, inscription, or additional device appears on this face. The simplicity of the design confirms the piece as a technical trial striking rather than a coin intended for general circulation. |
