| Obverse lettering | ELIZABETH • II • DEI • GRA REGINA • GIBRALTAR 2017 RDM (Translation: By the grace of God, Queen Elizabeth II Gibraltar 2017) |
| Reverse description | A dynamic depiction of Saint George mounted on his destrier, clad in armour, with lance raised and poised to deliver the killing blow to a dragon prostrate beneath the horse's hooves. The composition follows the classic Pistrucci tradition as adapted for Gibraltar sovereign-type coinage, conveying movement and chivalric drama within the coin's field. The motto of the Order of the Garter, HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE, is inscribed around the design, accompanied by the mintmark or privy mark AP. |
