Reverse description The left half of the reverse carries an intaglio vignette of the East India Company arms, showing two rampant lions as supporters flanking a quartered shield with two flag-bearing staffs, set above a ribbon bearing the motto; a fine guilloche border surrounds the panel. To the right, the colonial seal of Saint Helena is rendered within an ornate cartouche, enclosing a vignette of a sailing ship at sea before a rocky outcrop. The denomination '50p' appears in large numerals at centre between the two armorial vignettes, all printed in violet.
