| Reverse description | A kilted Scottish Highland soldier stands left, leaning against a square pedestal and gazing up at a funerary urn surmounted by a medallion portrait of Sir Ralph Abercromby in profile. Flags, spears, and a trophy of arms fan out dramatically behind the composition, while cannons and scattered weapons lie in the foreground. A relief scene of a cavalry engagement decorates the face of the pedestal. |
