| Obverse description | A human skeleton seated amid waves and wreckage holds a British naval ensign in its left hand and a trident in its right, in high relief against a plain field. The figure serves as a satirical personification of British naval power reduced to death. The artist's signature W.TH. EBERBACH appears in the lower right field. |
