| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a stylised seascape rendered in a child's drawing manner, with flowing wave lines sweeping across the lower and central field. A prominent oval shape filled with a textured, scale-like pattern — suggestive of a fish or the sun reflected on water — rises above the crest of the waves at the centre of the composition. The inscription 'O MAR' appears in large, informal lettering in the upper field, while 'SALVA' is inscribed in bold characters across the lower portion of the field, together conveying the legend meaning 'The Sea Saves'. The entire design is executed in a naive, hand-drawn aesthetic characteristic of children's artwork, in keeping with the coin's thematic concept. |
