Reverse description Seated female figure, representing Liberty, depicted in classical style facing left. In her right hand she holds a long pole surmounted by a Phrygian liberty cap, and in her left hand she extends an olive branch, symbolizing peace. The figure is rendered in a rudimentary style typical of Connecticut colonial coinage. The encircling Latin legend INDE ET LIB, an abbreviation of Independencia et Libertas, frames the design.
