| Reverse description | The central field depicts a detailed relief scene of the Mercury-Atlas 8 rocket on its launch pad, surrounded by gantry structures and billowing clouds of exhaust, evoking the atmosphere of the historic October 3, 1962 launch. The legend MERCURY-ATLAS 8 arcs along the upper portion of the inner border, while the rocket designation ATLAS LV-3B 113-D is inscribed in a curved legend across the lower central field. The date OCTOBER 3, 1962 is boldly inscribed along the lower rim, flanked on both sides by a series of five-pointed stars. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner border. |
