| Reverse description | The reverse features a detail from the Royal Shield of Arms, as designed by Matthew Dent, presenting a close-up segment of the shield showing the three golden lions passant guardant of England set against a granulated gules field, framed by a beaded inner border. A fleur-de-lis motif is visible at the upper edge of the shield, alluding to the full quartered Royal Arms composition of which this denomination forms one part. The denomination legend TWENTY PENCE, with the engraver's initials MD, is inscribed along the right side of the heptagonal field. |
