| Reverse description | A dynamic three-quarter front view of an F-35B Lightning II multirole stealth fighter aircraft rendered in sharp relief against a horizontally lined field within the copper-nickel inner disc.

The commemorative dates '1918 - 2018' flank the design at upper left and right within the nickel brass outer ring, marking the centenary of the Royal Air Force. The legend 'RAF' appears above and 'LIGHTNING II' below in bold raised lettering along the ring, with the designers' initials 'NT+RT' visible in the lower right field of the inner disc. |
