| Reverse description | The reverse presents a seated allegorical figure of Britannia facing left, accompanied by a lion couchant to her right. Britannia is depicted in classical robes, holding a trident in her right hand and an olive branch in her left, with a shield bearing the Union Flag resting at her side. The denomination FIFTY PENCE appears in the upper field arcing above the central device, with the numeral 50 positioned in the lower field beneath the figure. The design, engraved by Christopher Ironside, is executed in a dignified neoclassical style, evoking the long tradition of Britannia imagery on British coinage. |
