| Reverse description | Two historic paddle steamers, the twin Balaton vessels Helka and Kelén, are depicted in dynamic diagonal composition, their masts, funnels, and rigging rendered in fine detail against a mirror-polished proof field. The ships are shown underway on stylized waves, conveying a sense of movement and nautical heritage. The names 'Helka' and 'Kelén' appear in cursive script in the right field, while the launch year '1891' is inscribed along the lower rim. The legend 'RÉGI BALATONI HAJÓK' (Old Balaton Ships) curves along the upper border in upright Latin lettering. |
