The obverse presents the familiar portrait of Lady Liberty, her hair gracefully coiled beneath a coronet inscribed with “Liberty,” while the reverse features the heraldic eagle, wings spread wide and clutching arrows and an olive branch, embodying both strength and the nation’s commitment to peace. Though details regarding condition are limited, the coin’s classic design and historical context speak to the skill of the Philadelphia Mint during the late nineteenth century.
