| Reverse description | Three allegorical female figures seated in high relief before a classical architectural backdrop with flanking columns; the central figure holds a model of Robert Fulton's North River Steamboat, flanked by figures representing Navigation and History. Above, a wreathed portrait medallion of Robert Fulton is set between the columns, with views of a steamboat and a city skyline visible in the background fields. The legend ROBERT FULTON / 1765 1815 appears below the portrait, and the lower exergue reads FIRST USE OF STEAM IN NAVIGATION / ON THE HUDSON RIVER / 1807. The engraver's signature E. FUCHS appears in the lower right field. |
