Reverse description A seated female figure, personifying Liberty or Independence, is depicted facing right in the center of the field, draped in classical robes. In her extended left hand she holds an olive branch, symbolizing peace, while her right hand grasps a long staff or scepter. A shield rests at her side. The date 1787 appears in the exergue below a ground line. The legend INDE ET LIB arcs along the left and right periphery, an abbreviation of the Latin 'Independentia et Libertas' (Independence and Liberty).
