| Obverse description | The field depicts a large fleet of sailing warships scattered across turbulent seas, rendered in fine high relief. Rays of divine light emanate from storm clouds in the upper portion of the field, symbolising God's intervention. The circular Latin legend and date run along the beaded border. |
