| Reverse description | A child's hand-drawn style design fills the field, depicting a central erupting volcano flanked by the ocean with palm trees and a sailboat, a satellite dish and a rocket ship to either side, a comet with trailing lines in the upper right, constellation symbols and scattered stars throughout, and a stylized globe at the top center. The date 2018 appears in the mid-field, and the designer's signature Bailey Mattos is inscribed in the lower portion; a ring of small stars and dots frames the entire composition near the rim. |
