| Reverse description | The copper-nickel inner disc features lines from Robert Burns's celebrated poem 'Auld Lang Syne' rendered in a flowing cursive script imitating handwriting, reading 'we'll tak a cup of kindness yet, for auld lang syne.' The nickel-brass outer ring carries the inscription 1759 ROBERT BURNS 1796 — denoting the poet's birth and death years — at the top, and TWO POUNDS at the base, all within beaded borders. The overall design commemorates the 250th anniversary of Burns's birth. |
