| Obverse description | Draped bust of Liberty facing left, wearing a crested helmet, occupying the central field of the octagonal flan. A small lying letter 'G' appears in the exergue beneath the truncation. Thirteen six-pointed stars are evenly distributed around the periphery of the coin, framing the effigy. The design is rendered in high relief consistent with the California fractional gold series. |
