Description
STORY: The year is 1866, and there is discussion about a mysterious sea creature sinking ships all over the world. The US government steps in to investigate, and sends out the Abraham Lincoln to identify the creature. Pierre Aronnax, a French scientist and his manservant, Consell, are joined onboard by a harpooner named Ned Land. The trio sets sail and are subsequently attacked by the deadly creature which is shaped like a fish, complete with a large fin on top. When they are thrown overboard they realise their attacker is actually a submarine called the Nautilus. They are captured and placed in a cell by the ship’s captain. The story tells of the trio’s exciting, and sometimes terrifying, adventures on the Nautilus which roams the seas sinking warships. Eventually the three captives seize the opportunity to escape making it to shore unscathed in a small dinghy.
SHIP: The Nautilus is a double-hulled submarine. Its top speed is 50 knots. Its displacement is 1,356.48 French freight tons (1,507 submerged). It is an elongated cylinder with conical ends. The length of this cylinder, from stem to stern, is exactly 70 m, and its maximum breadth is eight metres. Lavishly equipped, its main attack method is ramming.
COIN: Depicts the Nautilus under the sea with two sailing vessels apparently giving chase. A sunken city lies on the seabed.
