| Reverse description | The central field depicts a finely detailed broadside view of the four-masted steel barque Herzogin Cecilie under full sail, her complex rigging and yards rendered with exceptional engraving precision. The vessel rides stylized waves that sweep across the lower portion of the field. The ship's name HERZOGIN CECILIE appears in bold raised lettering on a wave scroll beneath the hull, and the date 1993 is incused in the exergue at the base. The overall composition captures the grandeur of the famous German sailing vessel in a polished proof finish. |
