| Reverse description | The reverse features a three-quarter facing bust of Christopher Columbus occupying the right portion of the field, depicted wearing a cap and period ecclesiastical robes with a cross pendant, set against a mirror-polished background. To his left, a fully rigged 15th-century caravel sails on stylised waves, flying pennants from its masts. The inscription 15TH CENTURY arcs prominently along the upper rim in bold lettering, while AGE OF EXPLORATION: CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS is inscribed in three lines in the lower left field. The denomination $50 appears at the lower right, beside the portrait. |
