Portrayed in the classical style, two equestrian figures that resemble the leaders Wellington and Blücher feature in the centre of a design
in which they are guided by the figure of a flying Victory, while the obverse features the portrait of King Charles III by Martin Jennings. These legal tender coins have been struck to proof quality using specially prepared dies and highly polished blanks.
