To the left stands a female figure with a spear and fleur-de-lis standard representing Francia, and to the right Britannia with a Union shield and palm frond. A battle scene with cavalry appears in the right background. The engraver's initials P.W.F. appear in the lower right field. The Latin legend surrounds the scene, with the date in the exergue. |
