| Reverse description | The reverse presents a bold, stylised design by John Mills depicting a dove of peace in flight, rendered in a modernist graphic style with sweeping incised lines defining the wings and tail feathers. The bird faces left and carries an olive branch, a classical symbol of peace and reconciliation. The composition fills the entire field, with the dove's form occupying the central device against a smooth, uncluttered background. The commemorative dates 1945 and 1995 flank the design, marking the fiftieth anniversary of the end of the Second World War, with the engraver's initials JM also present. The overall design conveys a powerful message of peace and remembrance. |
