| Reverse description | Three helmeted infantrymen in full combat gear advance toward the viewer through dense jungle vegetation, evoking the atmosphere of ground combat during the Vietnam War. A fourth soldier is visible in the background between the two foreground figures, enhancing the sense of depth. Stylised foliage flanks the composition on both sides. The arc legend HISTORY OF ASIA runs along the upper periphery, with the two-line inscription WAR IN VIETNAM prominently placed in the upper central field. The frosted relief contrasts with the mirror-polished background in classic proof finish. |
