| Reverse description | The reverse depicts in bold relief the iconic Boys Town image of an older boy carrying a smaller boy on his back, rendered against a lightly incuse background suggesting motion. The dates 1917 and 1967 flank the central group in the field. The motto 'He ain't heavy Father...he's m' brother' curves through the lower field, while the legend FATHER FLANAGAN'S BOYS HOME arcs along the lower border and 50TH ANNIVERSARY runs along the upper border, all within a beaded inner ring. |
