| Reverse description | The central field depicts two heavily armed First World War-era battleships navigating turbulent, wave-swept seas during the Battle of Jutland, rendered in high relief by engraver John Bergdahl. The foreground vessel, viewed from the starboard quarter, shows prominent masts, gun turrets, and superstructure amid billowing smoke and towering shell splashes erupting to port. A second warship is visible in the left background, partially obscured by the chaos of battle. The engraver's initials 'JB' appear in the lower right field. The circumferential legend, separated from the central design by a raised inner border, reads '1914 THE FIRST WORLD WAR 1918' around the upper arc, with '· JUTLAND ·' along the lower arc. |
