| 正面描述 | Left-facing laureate and draped bust of Queen Victoria, engraved by Leonard Charles Wyon in the young head portrait style. The hair is elaborately dressed with a laurel wreath and flows in soft waves behind the neck. The circular legend VICTORIA D: G: REG: NEWFOUNDLAND is disposed around the periphery, with the inscription reading from the lower left upward and continuing around the upper field. The rim is defined by a uniform border of fine beading. |

Electrotypes are not struck coins — they are galvanic copies produced by depositing metal onto a mold taken from an original, then joining two shells. The Royal Mint used them internally as reference pieces and presentation duplicates, never as currency proposals in the conventional sense. This particular piece relates to the broader mid-Victorian discussion about a universal decimal coinage, in which a two-dollar denomination briefly appeared viable for British colonial unification before the scheme quietly collapsed without parliamentary commitment.
