| Reverse description | A finely detailed depiction of the Avro Vulcan delta-wing strategic bomber, identified by its serial number XM607, shown in dynamic diagonal flight across a horizontally lined field suggestive of sky and ground. The aircraft's distinctive triangular silhouette is rendered with precise engraved surface detail including camouflage patterning and roundels. The bimetallic-effect design features the central reverse device in silver against a gold-coloured outer ring. The legend RAF 1918–2018 arcs across the upper field, the word VULCAN appears prominently along the lower border, and the engravers' initials NT+RT are inscribed in the lower right field. |
