| Reverse description | A highly detailed and finely engraved broadside view of the celebrated Nova Scotian fishing and racing schooner Bluenose under full sail, depicted underway on a choppy sea with her canvas billowing impressively from two masts. The vessel's rigging, deck crew, and hull planking are rendered with exceptional sculptural relief, characteristic of the large-format kilo-coin format. In the right middle ground, a lighthouse and coastal buildings are visible atop a rocky promontory, while seabirds soar in a dramatically clouded sky. The legend BLUENOSE appears within a decorative cartouche in the upper right field. The overall composition captures the grace and power of the iconic schooner, an enduring symbol of Canadian maritime heritage. |
