| Reverse description | A Viking longship under full sail dominates the central field, depicted in three-quarter view sailing to the right over stylised waves; the diamond-patterned square sail is billowing, a dragon-head prow ornament extends at the bow, and a pennant flies from the masthead bearing the Manx triskelion device. Several seagulls in flight are scattered across the background field. The design is enclosed within a decorative rope border, with the denomination legend QUARTER NOBLE in large letters along the lower margin and the purity inscription 1/4 OZ PLATINUM FINE in smaller characters immediately above it. |
