| Reverse description | A three-quarter portrait of Florence Nightingale dominates the reverse field, depicting the celebrated nursing reformer dressed in a period nurse's habit with a white head covering, holding aloft a glazed lantern in her left hand — an allusion to her famous work tending the wounded during the Crimean War. The design by David Young captures her composed and determined expression in finely worked relief against a mirror-polished proof field. The arc legend FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE 1820-1910 curves along the upper periphery, commemorating her birth and death years, while the denomination FIVE POUNDS is inscribed along the lower border. |
