| Reverse description | Central design featuring a highly ornate interpretation of the Lily Font from the Tower of London, rendered in a Baroque decorative style incorporating cherubs, roses, and foliate ornament. The font, traditionally used for royal baptisms, is presented within an elaborate cartouche flanked by symbolic decorative elements referencing the christening ceremony. The royal motto DIEU ET MON DROIT is inscribed below the central motif, and the commemorative inscription celebrating the christening of Prince George of Cambridge arches around the design, with the engraver's initials JB incorporated into the field. The overall composition is executed in high relief befitting the proof finish. |
