Reverse description A finely detailed rendering of the Concorde supersonic passenger aircraft depicted in dynamic low-angle flight, oriented diagonally from lower left to upper right across the field. Behind the aircraft, an abstract geometric background of bold rectilinear panels and radiating speed lines evokes motion and modernity. The legend CONCORDE 1969-2003 arcs along the upper left border, while the denomination FIVE POUNDS is inscribed along the lower border, both separated from the central design by a raised inner rim.
