Reverse description A bold top-down plan view of the Concorde supersonic airliner dominates the central field, flanked by two profile silhouettes of the aircraft on either side, together conveying the aircraft's iconic needle-nosed, delta-winged form. Concentric sonic boom wave circles radiate outward from the central design, evoking the aircraft's legendary supersonic capability. The commemorative dates 1969 and 2019 appear at the left of the central image, marking the 50th anniversary of Concorde's maiden flight. The denomination FIVE POUNDS is inscribed in the lower field, and the arc legend THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF CONCORDE'S FIRST FLIGHT runs along the upper periphery.
