| Reverse description | The reverse depicts the legendary Kraken, a colossal cephalopod creature rendered in extraordinary sculptural relief, its massive tentacles with detailed suckers writhing across the field as it engulfs a wooden sailing vessel. The creature's large, expressive eyes are prominently featured at centre, conveying a sense of menace and mythological power. Blue-toned colour printing is applied to the turbulent ocean waves surrounding the beast, creating a vivid contrast with the finely detailed silver relief. The legend 'THE KRAKEN' is inscribed in bold lettering along the upper rim of the field. |
