| Reverse description | A dramatic low-angle scene depicts Berliners watching a Douglas C-54 Skymaster transport aircraft on final approach to land at Tempelhof Airport during the historic Berlin Airlift of 1948. Figures are rendered in relief in the foreground observing the aircraft overhead, capturing the human dimension of the humanitarian operation. The commemorative legend TO THE HEROES OF THE BERLIN AIRLIFT arcs along the upper portion of the field, with FIFTY DOLLARS inscribed below the central scene. The commemorative dual dates 1948 and 1998 appear in the lower exergue, marking the fiftieth anniversary of the airlift. |
