The reverse of the coins represent England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The 1994 pound shows a Scottish lion, 1995 shows a Dragon to represent Wales, 1996 honours Northern Ireland with a Celctic Cross design, and finally 1997 shows the three lions to represent England.
The reverse designs are by renowned silversmith Leslie Durbin, CBE.
Edge
The edge is not only milled but also inscribed with a motto or inscription.

Order of the Thistle. This inscription in Latin reads:-
NEMO ME IMPUNE LACESSIT

The inscription in Welsh reads:-
PLEIDIOL, WYF I'M GWLAD
