Reverse description Commemorative design by Gary Breeze honouring the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Britain. The upper field depicts a formation of World War II aircraft — including German bombers and British fighter silhouettes — filling the sky in dramatic array. Beneath, three RAF aircrew are shown striding purposefully in the foreground toward a Spitfire fighter aircraft at right, evoking the urgency of a wartime scramble. The bold legend THE BATTLE OF BRITAIN spans the mid-field, with the commemorative date 1940 inscribed in the lower exergue. The engraver's initials GB appear discreetly to the lower right of the central scene.
