| Reverse description | The reverse presents a stylised relief composition depicting the Adoration of the Magi, inspired by medieval iconographic tradition. The Virgin Mary is seated to the left, nimbed and holding a sceptre topped with a fleur-de-lis, with the Christ Child before her, also nimbed and raising his right hand in blessing. Three Magi appear to the right, crowned and robed, bearing gifts; one kneels in the foreground while two stand behind. A star of Bethlehem is depicted in the upper field above the figures. The legend THE NATIVITY arcs across the upper border, with CHRISTMAS 2016 along the lower border, and the engraver's initials GKC appear in the lower left field. |
