Obverse: The bust of Liberty faces left on the obverse, and her hair is coiled at the back of her head. The date 1873 is below; 13 stars ring the rim.

Reverse: An eagle holds his wing open, clutching three arrows in one claw and supporting a shield with the other. A ribbon inscribed IN GOD WE TRUST transverses the shield. 420 GRAINS, 900 FINE and TRADE DOLLAR are below; UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and E PLURIBUS UNUM--the latter in minuscule font--are above.
