| Reverse description | The reverse features a finely detailed depiction of the Chinese Pagoda at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, rendered in a decorative style by artist Christopher Le Brun. A climbing vine encircles the central pagoda motif, filling the heptagonal field with botanical ornament. The commemorative dates 1759 and 2009, marking the 250th anniversary of the gardens, flank the pagoda, divided by the design elements. The inscription 'Kew' appears within the composition, completing the reverse legend. |
