| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a father and son wading and playing in Medano Creek, the seasonal stream that flows along the base of the dunes, with the towering sand dunes of Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve rising dramatically in the middle ground and the Sangre de Cristo Mountains forming the background. The scene is framed by the inscriptions GREAT SAND DUNES above and COLORADO below along the rim, with the year 2014 and the national motto E PLURIBUS UNUM also present in the field. The park's name is presented in two lines within the design, and the composition conveys the unique juxtaposition of creek, dunes, and alpine terrain characteristic of this Colorado national park. |
