| Reverse description | The royal cypher 'VRI' surmounted by a crown, set within an open laurel wreath at centre. Five cartouches representing the continents of the Empire (Europe, Asia, Africa, America, Australia) are linked by chains around the upper field, each inscribed with its name and the words 'LOVE PEACE AND UNION'. A maritime scene occupies the lower field, featuring a lighthouse at left, sailing vessels and a steamship at right, symbolising British naval supremacy. Below, three heraldic shields flank a terrestrial globe with the banner 'BRITONS REJOICE'. The legend 'GOD SAVE THE QUEEN' runs above the lower scene, with 'SPINK LONDON' inscribed on a raised bar above the shields. The registration number 'Rd-286998' appears at upper left. |
