| Reverse description | The reverse bears a bold relief depiction of Saint George on horseback, his cape billowing, thrusting a lance downward at a dragon prostrate beneath the horse's hooves. The composition closely follows the classical Pistrucci design as used on British coinage, with no legend or lettering present in the field. |
