Reverse description A large three-masted carrack or galleon under full sail occupies the central and right field, depicted navigating open seas with seabirds in flight above. To the lower left, an oval medallion portrait of the Spanish explorer Álvaro de Mendaña de Neira is shown facing slightly left, bearded and wearing a broad-brimmed hat with a ruffled collar. The legend 'ALVARO DE MENDANA' arcs along the upper field, and the denomination '10 DOLLARS' is inscribed along the lower margin. The design is bordered by a beaded inner circle and struck in proof finish.
