| Reverse description | The central field features a detailed relief depiction of a classic Mississippi River paddlewheel steamboat navigating the river's flowing waters, rendered in frosted silver relief against a colorized background. Behind the vessel, a large cantilever bridge spans the river at twilight, with the illuminated skyline of a riverside city visible beneath it, all rendered in vivid applied color. Stylized wave motifs occupy the lower register of the field. The legend MISSISSIPPI arcs along the upper border, the Perth Mint privy mark P appears at the upper left field, and the inscriptions GREAT RIVER and JOURNEYS are prominently displayed across the lower field. |
