| Reverse description | The reverse presents an elaborate Baroque-style composition centred on the silver lily font of the Chapel Royal, traditionally used for royal christenings, rendered in finely detailed relief. The font is flanked by decorative cherubs and entwined roses, evoking the ceremonial grandeur of the occasion. A formal cartouche frames the principal inscription commemorating the christening of Prince George of Cambridge. The motto DIEU ET MON DROIT appears below, along with the date 2013 and the engraver's initials JB. The overall design is executed with exceptional sculptural depth, befitting the large-diameter proof format. |
