| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a detailed side-elevation view of Richard Trevithick's pioneering steam locomotive of 1804, the world's first railway steam engine, rendered in fine relief within the silver inner disc. The locomotive's boiler, chimney stack, connecting rods, and large spoked driving wheels are meticulously engraved, conveying both mechanical precision and historical significance. The denomination TWO POUNDS is inscribed in two lines across the upper right of the inner field. The gilt outer ring carries the commemorative legend R.TREVITHICK at the top, flanked by the dates 1804 and 2004, with the thematic inscription INVENTION · INDUSTRY · PROGRESS distributed around the lower arc, all separated by raised circular bosses representing cog teeth. |
