Cleveland Museum of Art

The coin on the left features a woman wearing a ruffled collar and what appears to be a crown or ornate headpiece. She stands on a ship with multiple masts and rigging. The ship has a decorated stern and a row of cannons on the visible side. Text surrounds the edge of the coin. The coin on the right shows a radiate sun with lines extending from it. A crown sits atop the sun. A double rose is positioned to the side. Text encircles the edge. Both coins are gold-colored.
