| Obverse description | The fifth definitive portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, sculpted by Jody Clark, occupies the centre of the obverse, depicting the crowned and draped right-facing effigy of the Queen wearing the George IV State Diadem and a drop earring. The peripheral legend reads ELIZABETH II·D·G·REG·FID·DEF·5 POUNDS, with the engraver's initials J.C. incused below the truncation of the neck. The design is rendered in a finely detailed, naturalistic style characteristic of Clark's portraiture. |
