The obverse side of the coin features a proud and majestic American eagle, its head adorned with a wreath of olive branches, symbolizing peace. The eagle's powerful gaze and the intricate detailing of its feathers evoke a sense of strength and resilience, reflecting the spirit of the American people during the 1850s. The reverse side of the coin is equally impressive, with an elegant wreath design encircling the coin's perimeter. The wreath is composed of various flowers and leaves, representing the diverse flora of the American landscape.
