Reverse description The reverse presents a dynamic high-relief scene depicting a Douglas SBD Dauntless dive bomber in a steep attack run, rendered in fine detail against an open field suggestive of sky and sea. The target vessel, identified as the Japanese aircraft carrier Akagi, is implied by the context of the dive angle and the historical narrative of the Battle of Midway. The upper arc bears the inscription BATTLE OF MIDWAY, while the Roman numeral date MMXXIV appears in the lower field. The composition employs strong diagonal lines to convey the drama and urgency of the pivotal 1942 aerial engagement.
