Reverse description The reverse commemorates the 120th anniversary of the Loop the Loop, the historic dual-tracked steel roller coaster that operated on Coney Island in Brooklyn, New York, from 1901 to 1910. A detailed architectural rendering of the coaster's looping steel framework dominates the field, conveying both the mechanical ingenuity and the spectacle of the attraction. A roller coaster car with passengers is depicted at the apex of the loop, rendered in fine relief. Multiple legends are distributed across the field, including the commemorative dates 1901 and 2021, the location CONEY ISLAND, N.Y., and the inverted text LOOP THE LOOP, reflecting the disorienting experience of the ride. The cautionary inscription BEWARE! OF PICKPOCKETS references the historical signage associated with the Coney Island amusement area.
