The first allegorical display of the Queen’s six virtues was featured on the Victoria Memorial, located outside Buckingham Palace. The Winged Angel of Victory appears at the top of the monument, with statuesque representations of Courage and Constancy crouched at her feet. The remaining three personified virtues, Truth, Justice, and Charity, stand around the monument’s base. The second coin in this historic Queen’s Virtues series pays tribute to “Truth”, which is defined as “that which is in accordance with fact or reality”. Some great quotes about truth include “The truth will set you free, but not until it is finished with you” (David Foster Wallace), and “In a time of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act” (George Orwell).

The obverse of the coin displays the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by British sculptor Raphael Maklouf. The Queen’s name, country of issue, denomination, year of mintage, and weight and purity surround the coin’s rim. The background displays an East India Company geometric pattern. 

The reverse features Truth, inspired by the statue on the Victoria Memorial. Truth is shown holding a mirror, supposedly to nature itself. She is comforting a small child who carries a palm branch, a symbol of victory, triumph, peace, and eternal life. The phrase “Truth Conquers All” borders the left top side of the coin, while the EIC privy mark appears on the lower right.
