| Reverse description | Central device depicts St George on horseback slaying the Dragon, rendered in rhodium-platinum to create a striking tonal contrast against the gold-clad silver field. Three gemstones — a sapphire, a diamond, and a ruby — are set individually into the lower quadrants on either side of the central motif, adding polychrome embellishment to the design. The encircling legend reads ST GEORGE AND THE DRAGON FIVE POUNDS along the lower periphery. |
