Obverse: Gracing the front of this stunning coin is Christian Gobrecht's neoclassical rendition of Lady Liberty, which incorporates many of the common aesthetics found in early Greco-Roman art. It depicts Lady Liberty in profile, wearing an inscribed crown on top of her elaborately arranged hairstyle. Framing her beautiful profile, along the outer edge of the coin, is a series of thirteen stars. These represent the original thirteen US colonies. Lastly, appearing beneath her portrait is the coin’s mintage year.
Reverse: 3/4 Facing Heraldic Eagle Bearing Arrows and an Olive Branch.
