| Reverse description | A detailed side-view depiction of the early Danube paddle steamer 'Carolina', the first steamship to navigate the Danube, rendered in fine relief occupying the central and lower field. The vessel's hull bears the name 'CAROLINA' along its bow, and stylized waves appear beneath the hull. A decorative cartouche in the upper left field contains the inscription 'Régi dunai hajók' (Old Danube ships) in a scrollwork frame, with the date '1817' inscribed below it in the field. A cursive script legend in the upper right portion of the field renders the ship's name in an ornate calligraphic style. |
