| Reverse description | Bold left-facing bust of Britannia wearing a classical crested helmet, her flowing hair rendered in fine detail against a stylised background of dynamic wave lines evoking the sea. The design by Philip Nathan presents an abstracted, modern interpretation of the traditional Britannia motif, with geometric intersecting lines occupying the upper field. The legend 'BRITANNIA' arcs along the left field, while 'QUARTER OUNCE FINE GOLD' and the date appear in stacked text to the right. The engraver's initials 'P.NATHAN' are inscribed at the base of the design. |
