The reverse presents two detailed renderings of the Dornier Do X flying boat, the largest, heaviest, and most powerful flying boat of its time. In the upper portion of the field, the aircraft is depicted in flight, its massive hull and broad parasol wing clearly delineated, with twelve tandem-mounted engine nacelles visible above the wing. In the lower portion, a large-scale frontal and broadside view of the flying boat is shown moored at the waterline, with the name DORNIER inscribed on the hull. The bold legend DORNIER DOX is engraved across the centre of the field, with the denomination 10 DOLLARS to the lower left. The curved commemorative inscription 80 YEARS TRANSATLANTIC TEST FLIGHT 1930/1931 arcs along the upper border. |

The Dornier Do X was the largest aircraft in the world when it flew in 1929 — a twelve-engine flying boat that carried 169 passengers on a demonstration flight over Lake Constance, a record that stood for decades. Its transatlantic voyage from 1930 to 1931 was plagued by fires, mechanical failures, and a nine-month delay in the Canary Islands. Only three were ever built, all for different operators, and none survived the war.
