SKIPPER
Skipper is grasping the edge of a conch shell and possibly dreaming that he is at the helm of a vessel like the one on the English coin on the base. On the front of his hat is the Star of Bethlehem, which is also at the center of a sand dollar. There are tiny seagulls on his hat, as well. He is wearing a red hat with a green coat, brown pants and boots. This nautical fellow is grasping the edge of a conch shell and imagining it to be the helm of a vessel like the one depicted on the English coin on the base. He has a faraway look as he steers by the stars. On the front of his hat is the Star of Bethlehem, which is actually at the center of a sand dollar. The little sea gulls on the hat were also from the inside of the sand dollar. Skipper’s name is written inside a Scotch Bonnet seashell, which is the official shell of North Carolina.
