| Reverse description | A bearded bust portrait of the Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan occupies the left-centre field, set against a stylised cartographic background evoking period nautical charts. To his right, the Victoria — the sole surviving vessel of Magellan's circumnavigation fleet — is depicted under sail on stylised waves. The curved legend FERDINAND MAGELLAN 1480-1521 arcs along the upper field. Below the ship the name VICTORIA appears, with the denomination 1 CROWN inscribed in the lower exergue. A toothed border frames the design. |
