| Reverse description | Central foreground portrait of Captain Noel Chavasse VC, depicted facing slightly left in military uniform with a Balmoral bonnet, his composed expression conveying resolve and dignity. Overlaid in the lower portion of the field is a detailed relief scene showing Chavasse tending to a wounded soldier on the battlefield, evoking his celebrated acts of medical bravery under fire during the First World War. The border is decorated with stylised poppy blooms and strands of barbed wire, symbolic of the Western Front. The upper legend arcs '1914 THE FIRST WORLD WAR 1918', while the name 'NOEL CHAVASSE VC' appears prominently in raised lettering within a recessed band at the base. The engraver's initials 'DC' are visible in the lower field. |
