| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a colorized reproduction of a historical world map depicting the voyages of Captain James Cook, styled after the engraved cartographic work drawn and engraved by J. Rapkin and published by John Tallis and Co., with Cook's navigational routes traced across the oceans. A three-masted sailing vessel is depicted in the Southern Ocean at the lower center of the map, evoking Cook's expeditions. The map is framed within an ornate decorative border featuring scrollwork and vignettes, itself set within the irregular torn-parchment shaped flan. The legends CAPTAIN JAMES COOK and VOYAGE OF DISCOVERY appear in the upper field above the map, flanking a central cartouche. |
