Reverse description A full-length frontal portrait of King Henry VIII dominates the central field, rendered in a style evoking Tudor-period imagery, with the royal cypher HR (Henricus Rex) appearing on either side of the figure to form a divided monogram. The commemorative legend noting the 500th anniversary of Henry VIII's accession arcs above, while the denomination is inscribed below. The engraver's initials JB appear in the field. The design marks the quincentenary of Henry VIII's accession to the English throne in 1509.
