| Reverse description | The reverse features a full-colour printed scene commemorating the 90th anniversary of the Supermarine Spitfire's maiden flight on 5 March 1936. Two Supermarine Spitfire aircraft in RAF camouflage livery, displaying roundel markings on their wings, are depicted in flight over a dramatic landscape of chalk cliffs and billowing clouds. In the lower foreground, a ground-level vignette shows a pilot or ground crew member beside the nose of a Spitfire, rendered in gold-plate tones against the coloured background. The legend 90TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE FIRST FLIGHT arcs along the upper border, and the inscription SUPERMARINE SPITFIRE is boldly lettered across the lower field in raised gold-toned characters. |
