| Reverse description | The reverse features a full-color application depicting a classic World War II pin-up figure in the style of WWII aircraft nose art: a seated blonde woman wearing a red hair bow and red high-heeled shoes, holding a glass, rendered in polychrome color printing against the polished silver field. Flanking the figure on both sides are groups of embossed aerial bombs arranged in rows, evoking wartime mission tallies. The incuse legend WWII NOSE ART arcs along the upper periphery, BRIEFING TIME appears in bold stylized lettering across the center field, and BRIEFING TIME is repeated along the lower periphery. The fineness inscription 999 FINE SILVER appears in the lower central field. |
