Obverse description Central relief depicts an artist's rendering of the CSS Neuse Confederate ironclad warship under steam, with smoke billowing from its funnel and seabirds in flight above, set against a stylized water field. The legend arcs along the upper rim with the ship's name, while a four-line commemorative inscription in the lower field reads of her scuttling in March 1865, with KINSTON, NORTH CAROLINA along the bottom arc.
