Reverse description A Hanoverian horse rears and tramples a prostrate lion and unicorn in the foreground, symbolising the subjugation of Britain; a distressed female figure with a wheel is seated to the left. In the middle ground, the River Thames is shown with vessels, and a detailed panoramic view of London skyline dominates the background, featuring St Paul's Cathedral and numerous church spires. The date MDCCXXI appears in the exergue, separated by a horizontal line, with the legend arching across the upper field.
