| 背面描述 | The reverse depicts a detailed side-on view of the Royal Yacht Britannia underway at sea, with the Rock of Gibraltar visible in the left background and a seagull in flight above. The vessel is rendered with fine detail including masts, funnels, flags, and hull plating above rolling waves. The circular legend '40th ANNIVERSARY OF THE 1st ROYAL VISIT OF QUEEN ELIZABETH II' arcs around the upper portion of the field. The denomination '2 POUNDS' is inscribed in two lines at the base of the design, with the coin's toothed border framing the entire composition. |

Gibraltar's 1994 commemorative marks Queen Elizabeth II's first official visit to the territory, which took place in 1954 — a politically charged trip given Spain's longstanding territorial claim and the visit's implicit reaffirmation of British sovereignty. Spain had severed the land border with Gibraltar in 1969 under Franco; it remained closed until 1985, making the decades surrounding this commemorative some of the most diplomatically tense in the Rock's modern history.
Virenium, a copper-nickel-zinc alloy developed specifically for Pobjoy Mint commemorative issues, was the house metal of choice for Gibraltar's collector-oriented output throughout this period.
