| Reverse description | Three magnificent frigatebirds (Fregata magnificens) are depicted in dynamic flight across the open field, their characteristic angular, deeply forked tails and long pointed wings rendered in fine sculptural relief against a deeply mirrored proof surface. The birds are arranged at varying heights and angles, conveying a sense of soaring movement. The denomination legend FIFTY CENTS curves along the upper portion of the field inside the beaded border, which encircles the entire design. |
