| Reverse description | A boldly modelled left-facing profile portrait of British author George Orwell rendered in a cubist-influenced, angular sculptural style, the figure depicted in a hooded garment and shown in a dynamic, forward-leaning posture with pen in hand. The background is composed of horizontal bands bearing the repeated date '1984' interspersed with small framed vignettes incorporating symbolic imagery, evoking the dystopian themes of Orwell's celebrated novel. The legend 'GEORGE ORWELL 1984' appears within the design, and the engraver's monogram and date are present in the lower exergual area. |
