| Reverse description | The reverse depicts two hands in high relief passing a Naval Aviator wings badge between them, symbolizing the transfer of tradition across generations. An early biplane appears in the upper field near the date '1911', while a modern aircraft carrier is rendered in the lower field near the date '1961'. The curved legend arcs across the upper portion of the field, with the maker's mark 'MACo' visible in the lower right. |
