| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed depiction of the papyrus reed vessel Ra II under full sail, shown navigating open ocean swells with crew members visible on deck. The rigging, bundled reed hull, and characteristic upswept bow and stern of the ancient-style craft are rendered with great precision. The legend THE RA EXPEDITIONS curves along the upper periphery, while the inscription RA II / CROSSING / THE / ATLANTIC / OCEAN / 1970 appears in the right field. The date 1991 is inscribed at the base, and a designer's monogram is visible in the lower right field. |
