Reverse description A highly detailed rendering of HMAV Bounty under full sail occupies the central field, depicted on a slightly choppy sea with a rocky coastline visible to the right, evoking the waters near Pitcairn Island. The rigging, hull timbers, and billowing sails are rendered with fine engraving detail against the polished proof field. The legend HMAV BOUNTY arcs along the upper left in large raised letters, while the bicentennial date range 1789 · 1989 is inscribed vertically along the right periphery.
