| Reverse description | The reverse field features a composite design combining a black-and-white photographic pad-print of Londoners sheltering in an Underground station during the Blitz in the upper portion, transitioning to a gold-plated relief depiction of the same scene in the lower portion. To the right, a colour pad-printed panel displays a partial Union Jack flag above a reproduction of the iconic red 'Keep Calm and Carry On' wartime poster. The legends 'THE BLITZ SPIRIT' and 'SEPTEMBER 1940' are inscribed in relief in the lower field. Two inscribed quotations run continuously around the border. |
