| 裏面の説明 | Central composition featuring the full Royal Arms of Great Britain, quartered shield displaying the lions of England, lion of Scotland, and harp of Ireland, surmounted by the Imperial crown. The shield is supported to the left by a crowned lion guardant and to the right by a unicorn, both rendered in high relief. Below the shield, a scroll bears the motto 'HONI SOIT MAL Y PENSE' and the supporters stand upon a decorative foliate cartouche. The denomination 'SIX PENCE' appears in the upper field, the date in Roman numerals 'MDCCCLXXXVII' is inscribed below the shield, and the maker's name 'SPINK & SON' appears at the bottom of the field flanked by a floral ornament, all within a beaded border. |

Spink & Son submitted this piece during the open competition held in 1887 for Victoria's Golden Jubilee coinage redesign — a rare instance of a private trade firm entering a formal Royal Mint tender. The Jubilee head, ultimately executed by Joseph Boehm and engraved by Leonard Charles Wyon, was the subject of considerable behind-the-scenes lobbying, and Spink's pattern represents one of several unsuccessful proposals that never advanced beyond specimen strikes.
Surviving examples are overwhelmingly in mint state; they were never released for circulation and exist almost exclusively as struck submissions or trade samples retained by the firm.
