| Reverse description | Central design depicts the full-rigged barque HMS Endeavour under sail, proceeding to the right across open waters, with the distinctive volcanic cone of Mount Taranaki (Mount Egmont) rising prominently in the background. The composition captures the historic first Pacific voyage of Captain James Cook, undertaken between 1769 and 1771. The denomination FIFTY CENTS is inscribed in the upper left field, while the legend JB ENDEAVOUR appears in the lower portion of the design. The scene is rendered with fine engraved detail, highlighting the vessel's rigging and hull against the mountainous New Zealand coastline. |
