| Reverse description | The central field features a dynamic cartoon depiction of Billy Whizz, the superhuman-speed character from the British comic magazine The Beano (DC Thomson), rendered in a bold comic-art style. The character is shown in full stride sprinting from left to right at great speed, with motion lines trailing behind him to emphasise his extraordinary velocity. The denomination 'FIFTY PENCE' is inscribed in stylised lettering along the upper arc of the field, while the character's name 'BILLY WHIZZ' appears in matching comic-style lettering along the lower arc. The copyright notice '©DC Thomson Ltd 2021' is inscribed in small characters at the base of the field. |
