| Obverse description | Bare-headed right-facing effigy of King Charles III occupies the central field, modelled in high relief by sculptor Martin Jennings. The portrait depicts the King with naturalistic detail in the hair and facial features, rendered in the restrained contemporary style adopted for the reign. The encircling Latin legend reads CHARLES III · D · G · REX · F · D · 50 PENCE · 2025, interrupted by the denomination and date at the lower right. The engraver's initials MJ appear discreetly in the field to the right of the portrait. |

| Reverse description | The reverse, designed by Ffion Gwillim, presents a dynamic scene of Mary Poppins striding purposefully against a gusting wind, her right arm raised aloft holding her iconic open umbrella. In her left hand she carries her large carpet bag, while her skirts and coat billow in the breeze. The background evokes a windswept English townscape with stylised rooftops and trees rendered in a stippled, illustrative technique reminiscent of the original P.L. Travers book illustrations. The legend MARY POPPINS is inscribed in two lines across the lower portion of the field in a decorative serif typeface. |
