| Obverse description | The fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, modelled by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicted as a right-facing diademed bust with finely rendered hair detail and wearing a simple necklace. The engraver's initials 'IRB' appear in small incuse lettering below the truncation of the neck. The inner silver field presents a deeply mirrored proof finish, while the outer ring, struck in gold-plated silver, carries the circumferential Latin legend ELIZABETH·II·DEI·GRA·REG·FID·DEF separated by raised dot stops. A beaded border delineates the inner and outer zones of this bimetallic piedfort flan. |
