| Reverse description | A finely detailed Chinese junk under full sail occupies the left and centre of the field, its characteristic battened sails rendered with great precision against a mirror-like proof background with a blue-tinted sky. In the right foreground, a bearded bust portrait of the Venetian explorer Marco Polo is depicted in high relief, facing left, wearing period robes. A multi-tiered Chinese pagoda rises in the middle distance behind the vessel. The legend CHINESE JUNK arcs along the upper periphery within a beaded border, and the inscription MARCO POLO appears in the lower left field. |
