Obverse description
This triangular-shaped medal is struck from pure copper weighing 1 AVDP oz and features the theme of traditional maritime heritage from the Indonesian archipelago. The design showcases the Kora-Kora, a traditional warship from the Maluku Islands of Indonesia, with its large single sail billowing in the wind. The long, narrow hull with raised ends and outrigger paddles reflects the ship’s historic role in both warfare and ceremonial voyages. The ship sails across stylized waves, framed by intricate ornamental scrollwork.
