| Reverse description | Central depiction of the Sovereign's Orb and Sceptre, the principal regalia of the British coronation ceremony, set against an ornate background motif inspired by the Rose Window of Westminster Abbey's south transept. The radiating Gothic tracery of the window provides an intricate geometric framework that fills the field around the central regalia. The surrounding legend references the 65th Coronation Anniversary, with the dates 1953–2018, the royal cypher EIIR, and the denomination TWENTY FIVE POUNDS inscribed in the border. |
