| Obverse description | Effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II facing right, rendered in high relief as a crowned bust wearing the George IV State Diadem, after the fifth definitive portrait by engraver Jody Clark. The legend encircles the portrait within the coin's field, incorporating the denomination and date. The initials J.C. appear below the truncation, attributing the design to its creator. The composition reflects the refined struck quality expected of a piedfort issue. |

| Reverse description | Right-facing crowned portrait of King Henry VII, executed in a style inspired by contemporary Tudor coinage of the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The effigy captures the monarch in regal bearing, with the crown depicted in fine detail above. A Latin legend encircles the design between the beaded border and the outer rim, proclaiming his royal titles. The reverse design is attributed to Alexander of Bruchsal, the original die-cutter of early Tudor coinage, faithfully adapted for this commemorative piedfort issue. |
