| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a coastal view of Elmina (São Jorge da Mina) on the Gold Coast of Africa, showing Fort São Jorge on a promontory and Fort Santiago at the shoreline, with a large Dutch sailing vessel in full rig navigating the foreground waters. The inscribed label 'S.G. DELMINA' appears in the field, and the circular legend with the date 1683 surrounds the scene between a beaded inner border and a reeded outer rim. |
