| Reverse description | A central ornamental cartouche, framed by elaborate decorative scrollwork and surmounted by a coronet featuring fleurs-de-lis and lily motifs, commemorating the birth of the second child of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. The commemorative inscription is arranged around the cartouche within the field, with the year of issue incorporated into the legend. The engraver's initials 'JB' appear within the design, and the overall composition reflects a formal heraldic style befitting a royal commemorative issue. |

| Additional information |
Issued to mark the birth of Princess Charlotte in May 2015, this piece belongs to a Royal Mint commemorative program that had grown substantially more aggressive in its output by the mid-2010s — the Mint was producing dozens of proof sets annually, a volume that has kept secondary market premiums modest on most issues from this period.
