Summary

Description
English: The reverse (tails) depicts a portrait of Edith Kanakaʻole, with her hair and lei poʻo (head lei) morphing into the elements of a Hawaiian landscape, symbolizing Kanakaʻole's life’s work of preserving the natural land and traditional Hawaiian culture. The inscription "E hō mai ka ʻike" translates as “granting the wisdom,” and is a reference to the intertwined role hula and chants play in this preservation.
