I thought the rope edging was a nice touch but a little controversial as the original artist may think of the rope being symbolic context of the ship and it's Captain.
it can be misconstrued from the 'Ties that bind' to 'Subjugation' similar to the iron chains that often symbolize Slavery and servitude. A subject shown in some African coins.
I sure can dig deep in the research of coins and find little nuggets of information.

Thanks for the comment Sis @elizabethbit
