Obverse: Effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by master sculptor Raphael Maklouf.

Reverse: Designed by Paul Day, the coin depicts a British and German Soldier shaking hands with the image of a football game in the background. The coin reminds us that for one moment in time, men were men and not soldiers. After months of bloody and brutal conflict both sides called an unofficial truce on Christmas Eve 1914. This allowed men from the trenches of the Western Front to carry out repairs, tend to the wounded, deal with supplies and bury their dead.
