| Reverse description | A dramatic naval battle scene commemorating the bicentenary of the Battle of Trafalgar (1805), depicting a large warship engulfed in billowing smoke and flames at the centre of the composition, with a second sailing vessel visible to the left under full sail. A sinking or stricken ship occupies the foreground in the lower field, with turbulent waves rendered beneath. The engraving conveys depth and movement through fine relief work. The commemorative dates 1805 and 2005 flank the word TRAFALGAR along the upper arc, while FIVE POUNDS appears in bold letters along the lower arc, all within a rope-style inner border. |
