Reverse description The reverse, designed by Andy Walker, depicts three Royal Air Force fighter pilots in full flying kit — helmets, goggles, and flight suits — shown in a heroic three-quarter portrait composition, evoking the spirit of the Few who defended Britain in the summer of 1940. The figures are rendered with bold sculptural relief against a polished proof field, framed within a gilt outer ring. The surrounding legend reads BATTLE OF BRITAIN • SO FEW • 80TH ANNIVERSARY • TWO POUNDS, referencing Winston Churchill's famous tribute to the RAF aircrew.
