| Reverse description | Central design depicts a detailed rendering of a period vessel at sea, rendered in fine relief against a polished field, commemorating the founding of the Royal British Legion in 1921. In the lower portion of the field, within the stylised waves beneath the ship, a colourised red enamel poppy — the emblem of remembrance — is prominently applied. The founding year 1921 appears to the left of the vessel and the commemorative year 2011 to the right, with the denomination FIVE POUNDS arcing along the upper legend and ROYAL BRITISH LEGION along the lower periphery. |
