Reverse description Central bust-length portrait of Air Marshal Sir William Sholto Douglas in RAF uniform, facing slightly left, wearing his peaked service cap and displaying rank insignia and wings on his chest. Two RAF Coastal Command aircraft are depicted in the upper field — a Short Sunderland flying boat at upper right and a land-based patrol aircraft at left — evoking the maritime patrol role of the Command. The inscription RAF COASTAL COMMAND appears to the right of the portrait in the field, the curved legend HISTORY OF THE ROYAL AIR FORCE arcs around the upper periphery, and the denomination FIVE POUNDS is displayed in a rectangular cartouche at the base of the design.
