| Reverse description | A finely rendered three-quarter length portrait of Captain James Cook seated in an informal pose, dressed in 18th-century naval uniform with detailed coat buttons and lace cuffs, and holding a navigational chart or map spread across his lap. The figure is depicted in high relief at the center of the field, conveying authority and the spirit of exploration. The legend '500 YEARS OF AMERICA 1492–1992' curves along the upper border, commemorating the quincentenary of Columbus's arrival in the Americas, while the denomination '50 DOLLARS' appears in large lettering along the lower border. |
