The composition is rendered in a pictorial style evoking the Romantic tradition, with the two figures occupying the central field. The inscriptions THE LEGEND OF SAINT GEORGE and THE PRINCESS AWAITS HER FATE are positioned within the design, serving as narrative titles to the scene. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Gibraltar's Royal Mint-contracted commemorative program has produced dozens of Saint George themed pieces across multiple years, with the 2018 "Princess Awaits Her Fate" entry targeting the collector market for narrative series coins rather than any circulatory or monetary function. The underlying legend derives from the Cappadocian tradition of George's dragon encounter, codified most influentially in Jacobus de Voragine's Legenda Aurea of the 13th century, which specified that the princess had been chosen by lot to be sacrificed.
