| Reverse description | A detailed rendering of the Forth Railway Bridge, the iconic Scottish cantilever rail bridge spanning the Firth of Forth, occupies the central field in three-quarter perspective, conveying the structure's monumental latticed steelwork. The design represents Scotland as part of the Royal Mint's series of £1 reverse designs for the four home nations. A decorative rope-and-bead border frames the design around the inner rim. The word PATTERN appears as an inscription along the lower portion of the field beneath the bridge motif. |
