| Reverse description | The reverse features four Apollo mission emblems — representing Apollo IX, Apollo X, Apollo XI, and Apollo XII — arranged around a central composition depicting the Sun and three rearing winged horses leaping from the Earth toward the Moon through a stylized space field. The crew names for each mission are inscribed adjacent to their respective mission badge in Latin script. The legend 'APOLLO XIII' appears prominently, connecting the commemorative theme to the ill-fated thirteenth mission. The overall design is richly detailed, combining celestial imagery with the heraldic and emblematic insignia of the early American space program. |
