| Reverse description | The reverse features a bold, high-relief depiction of the White Horse of Hanover rearing on its hind legs, its flowing mane and tail rendered with great dynamism and detail. The horse's forelegs rest upon a heraldic shield bearing the Royal Arms of the United Kingdom, quartered with the arms of England, Scotland, Ireland, and France. The entire composition is set against a fine engine-turned background field. The peripheral legend WHITE HORSE OF HANOVER arcs along the left and lower border, while 2OZ · FINE SILVER · 999.9 · 2020 is inscribed along the right and lower border, with the engraver's initials JC appearing at the bottom of the field. |
