| Reverse description | The denomination 20 CENTS and the date are inscribed in three lines at the centre of the field, enclosed within a decorative wreath composed of stylised foliage and ornamental sprays tied at the base, with a scrollwork device at the apex. An inner beaded circle frames the central inscription, and the whole design is bordered by a toothed outer rim. The reverse is unlettered beyond the denomination and date, presenting a clean and symmetrical composition characteristic of Wyon's engraving style for Newfoundland coinage. |
