Reverse description A fully rigged Royal Navy ship of the line is depicted in three-quarter view dominating the central field, with detailed rendering of hull, masts, sails, and rigging, set against a stylised rocky coastal background suggestive of the Rock of Gibraltar. In the upper left, a circular cameo portrait of Commodore Horatio Nelson faces left, shown in naval uniform with powdered wig, framed by a raised oval border. The commemorative legend curves around the upper periphery of the coin, while the denomination appears in two lines at the base of the field.
