| Reverse description | Britannia, reclining in mourning to the right, leans her head upon her hand beside an altar-tomb surmounted by a flaming urn, upon which the dates of Abercromby's wounding and death are inscribed. A palm tree stands to the left and pyramids are visible in the distant landscape background, evoking the Egyptian campaign. The exergue below a ground line bears the legend commemorating the French defeat. |
