Beschrijving voorzijde The fifth definitive portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, as modelled by engraver Jody Clark, occupies the centre of the obverse field. The effigy presents a right-facing bust of the Queen wearing the George IV State Diadem, with a drop earring visible at the ear. The portrait is rendered in high relief with finely detailed hair and facial features. The engraver's initials 'J.C' appear in the lower field beneath the truncation. The circumferential Latin legend reads ELIZABETH II·DEI·GRA·REGINA·FID·DEF·, separated by raised pellets, with a milled border encircling the entire design.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse bears the iconic Saint George and the Dragon composition originally designed by Benedetto Pistrucci and used on British sovereigns since 1817. Saint George, depicted as a heroic nude figure save for a billowing cloak and crested helmet, is shown mounted on a rearing horse and plunging a broken lance downward into the writhing dragon beneath the horse's hooves. The dramatic scene is rendered in bold sculptural relief, filling nearly the entire field. The designer's name PISTRUCCI appears incuse along the lower ground line, while the date 2018 and the Royal Mint mintmark are inscribed in the exergue below.
