| Reverse description | Half-length portrait of a youthful Lord Horatio Nelson in naval officer's uniform, facing slightly left, occupying the central field in high relief. Two period sailing warships are depicted in the background field, one to the left and one to the right of the figure, evoking the age of sail. The upper circular legend reads 'ANNIVERSARY OF THE BIRTH OF LORD NELSON' with the commemorative dates '1758 2008' flanking the design, and the denomination 'FIVE POUNDS' inscribed on a raised panel in the lower field. The overall composition reflects a patriotic commemorative style befitting the 250th anniversary of Nelson's birth. |
