| Reverse description | Three stylized views of the Concorde supersonic airliner are depicted in a dynamic, overlapping composition at the centre of the field, conveying a sense of speed and flight. Concentric elliptical lines radiating outward from the aircraft represent the iconic sonic boom shockwaves associated with supersonic travel. The design is executed in a bold graphic style with strong contrasts between polished and frosted surfaces. The commemorative dates 1969 and 2019 flank the central motif, and the denomination TWENTY FIVE POUNDS appears in the lower left field. The curved legend THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF CONCORDE'S FIRST FLIGHT arcs along the upper border. |
