| Obverse description | Fourth definitive effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, rendered in high relief after the portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, wearing a stylized crown and the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara. The Queen is depicted with a draped bust, her mature likeness conveying regal dignity. The legend surrounds the effigy along the coin's periphery, with the designer's initials IRB appearing below the truncation of the neck. The field exhibits a deep mirror proof finish characteristic of Royal Mint collector issues. |

| Reverse description | Highly detailed portrait bust of HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, facing right, sculpted by Mark Richards to commemorate the Duke's 90th birthday. The effigy is rendered in bold, high relief against a deeply mirrored proof field, capturing the Duke's aged but distinguished features with considerable naturalistic detail. The engraver's initials MR appear discreetly at the lower left of the bust truncation. The commemorative legend is arranged in a circular inscription around the periphery of the reverse, with the denomination, date, and subject clearly stated. |
