Reverse description A highly detailed high-relief depiction of HMS Endeavour under full sail, rendered three-quarter view and dominating the central field against a background of a globe with gridded meridian and latitude lines suggesting the breadth of Captain Cook's voyages. The ship's rigging, billowing sails, hull planking, and flying flags are rendered with exceptional engraving detail. Decorative acanthus scrollwork and coiled rope border the composition on either side, with a small anchor medallion at left and right within the inner border. The legend ENDEAVOUR SETS SAIL arcs across the upper field, while a scrolled cartouche in the lower field bears the inscriptions CAPTAIN COOK and 1768.
