Obverse description A detailed relief scene depicting the royal wedding ceremony, with Prince Charles in military uniform and Lady Diana Spencer in a bridal gown and veil exchanging vows before a robed bishop wearing a mitre, flanked by attendants. The figures stand on a chequered floor, rendered in proof-like frosted relief against a mirror-polished field.
