The copyright notice MARVEL and the fineness specification 1 oz 999 Fine Silver are inscribed in the lower right field.

| Reverse description | The reverse reproduces in full color the iconic cover artwork of Marvel Comics' Journey into Mystery issue No. 83 (August 1962), the debut appearance of Thor. The central composition depicts the Mighty Thor in heroic stance, wielding his hammer Mjolnir and deflecting a swirling energy ring, surrounded by alien rock creatures and a hovering spacecraft against an urban backdrop. The masthead JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY dominates the upper field in bold red lettering, with the issue number 83 and month AUG. at upper right. Promotional captions within the design read INTRODUCING... THE MIGHTY THOR! and THE MOST EXCITING SUPER-HERO OF ALL TIME!!, with the banner BEGIN THE SAGA OF THOR IN THIS ISSUE! running along the lower edge. The price IND. 12¢ appears in the upper left corner, faithfully reproducing the original period cover design. |
