| Obverse description | A large ocean liner rendered in high relief dominates the central field, depicted bow-on and advancing toward the viewer, with a stylized anchor emblem visible on the hull. To the left in the middle ground, the distinctive silhouette of Hamburg's St. Michaelis church tower and surrounding harbour architecture are depicted, evoking the city's historic waterfront skyline. The legend HAMBURGUM arcs across the upper periphery, with the date 1965 positioned in the upper field, while PORTUS MUNDI curves along the lower border. The design conveys Hamburg's historic role as a major international seaport, executed in a bold, graphic style characteristic of mid-20th century medallic art. |
