    Reverse:
    The reverse, designed by William McMillan, shows Saint
    George naked on horseback and armed with a short
    sword, an allegory of the physical and mental strength which achieved victory over Prussianism. The horse tramples on the Prussian eagle shield and the emblems of death, a skull and cross-bones. In the background are ocean waves and just off-centre near the right upper rim is the risen sun of Victory.
