| 裏面の説明 | The central field features a coloured reconstruction of an Iguanodon dinosaur depicted in three-quarter frontal stance, rendered in naturalistic olive and yellow-green tones by palaeo-artist Robert Nicholls, whose initials RN appear in the lower right field. The animal stands above a horizontal ground line, beneath which a large coloured fossil tooth — the original specimen upon which Gideon Mantell based his 1825 formal description of the species — is prominently displayed. Flanking the central figure in the uncoloured field are engraved depictions of Cretaceous-era flora, including fern fronds and a cycad cone with roots, rendered in fine intaglio. The legend IGUANODON curves along the upper arc of the coin, while MANTELL 1825 is inscribed in two lines across the lower exergue, commemorating the palaeontologist and the year of the genus's scientific naming. |

Issued as part of the Royal Mint's "Dinosaur Britain" series, this coin marks the 200th anniversary of the formal scientific description of Iguanodon by Gideon Mantell in 1822 — though the creature had been misidentified for decades, famously reconstructed with its thumb spike placed on its nose. The error persisted in public models until well into the twentieth century.
