| Obverse description | Full-colour reproduction of J.M.W. Turner's painting 'The Fighting Temeraire' across the entire field, depicting the ghostly white warship being towed by a dark steam tugboat along a river at sunset, with dramatic atmospheric sky rendered in warm golden and orange tones. The scene is faithfully reproduced in fine detail against the rectangular ingot surface. |
