OBVERSE DESIGN
This design features a bristlecone pine, a species native to California, Nevada, and Utah, thought to be the oldest living organisms on Earth, living up to 5,000 years. Bristlecone pines grow in places where other plants cannot, and are often the species that is first to repopulate the land after cataclysmic changes such as a lava run or glacial runoff. The inscription "WE SHALL PERSEVERE" reflects the concept of liberty through perseverance.
REVERSE DESIGN
This design depicts a young bald eagle standing on a rocky outcropping moments before it takes flight.
