| Obverse description | Uncrowned right-facing effigy of King Charles III, rendered in high relief with fine sculptural detail to the hair and facial features. The portrait, engraved by Martin Jennings (initials MJ visible in the field), occupies the central field with a deeply mirrored proof finish. The circumferential legend reads CHARLES III · D · G · REX · F · D · 5 POUNDS, with the date 2025 completing the inscription at the base. |

| Reverse description | A bold and contemporary right-facing portrait of John Lennon dominates the field, depicted with his characteristic round wire-rimmed glasses and medium-length hair rendered in fine sculptural relief. The name JOHN LENNON is inscribed in large block capitals reading diagonally across the left portion of the design, while the word IMAGINE appears vertically along the right side in similarly bold lettering, referencing his iconic 1971 anthem. The engraver's initials HDG appear in the lower centre of the field, and the overall composition merges typographic and portraiture elements in a striking modern aesthetic. |
