| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a poignant scene of three immigrant figures arriving at Ellis Island: a woman wearing a headscarf and carrying a wicker basket stands at center-left, a man in a flat cap stands behind her gazing toward the horizon, and a young boy in the foreground holds a small American flag, his expression hopeful. The iconic Main Building of the Ellis Island Immigration Station is rendered in detail in the right background, with water visible at its base evoking the harbor setting. The legend ELLIS ISLAND arcs along the upper rim, with NEW JERSEY inscribed along the lower left and E PLURIBUS UNUM along the lower right. The date 2017 appears in the exergue at the bottom, flanked by the designer's initials BF and PH in the field. |
