| Reverse description | The reverse features a colourised portrait of Sir Winston Churchill facing slightly left, rendered in a bold graphic style against a backdrop of billowing clouds in teal and gold tones. To the left of Churchill's effigy, the silhouette of St Paul's Cathedral rises against the dramatic wartime sky, evoking the Blitz. A colourised Union Jack flag is depicted in the upper field behind the portrait. The legend 'SO MUCH OWED BY SO MANY TO SO FEW' arcs along the upper perimeter, referencing Churchill's famous 1940 speech. Along the lower portion of the field, the inscription 'BATTLE of BRITAIN' appears in bold lettering flanking the numeral '85', commemorating the 85th anniversary of the Battle of Britain. |
