The Artist creates an accurate and detailed rendition of the S. S. Great Eastern adding a jack boat in front which is easily dwarfed by the steamship on the reverse. Also, a map of the cable's route appears on the reverse of the coin.

These popular coins have a mintage of 20000 as many collectors want to share in the success of the first cable allowing electronic communication between North America and Europe. This collectible will also appeal to those who prefer to be reminded how quickly technology has come so far.
