| Reverse description | The central field depicts two aircraft rendered in fine detail: a modern light aircraft in the foreground occupying the majority of the field, and a smaller vintage biplane shown in silhouette in the lower right, evoking the contrast between early and contemporary aviation. Clouds are depicted behind the modern aircraft. The curved legend MAN IN FLIGHT arcs across the upper periphery, while the commemorative inscription 60th ANNIVERSARY OF OFFICIAL AIRMAIL 1934 appears in two lines across the lower central field, with the denomination 1 CROWN displayed prominently at the base. |
