| Reverse description | Commemorative design by Tim Sharp honouring the British Army during the First World War, featuring a stylised profile bust of a British soldier wearing a Brodie helmet, rendered in close-up against a background of diagonal bands suggesting searchlight beams or barbed wire. Below and to the left, an array of densely packed vertical lines evokes rows of troops or a field of crosses, conveying the scale of sacrifice. The composition is set within the polished inner field of the coin. The outer gold-toned ring bears the legend THE FIRST WORLD WAR 1914–1918 around the upper arc, with the date 2016 at the base. |
