Reverse description The reverse depicts a scene derived from the iconic photograph taken by John T. Daniels on December 17, 1903, at Kitty Hawk, capturing the first successful powered flight of the Wright Brothers' Flyer, with Orville Wright prone at the controls and Wilbur Wright standing to the right. The design was engraved by John Mercanti, whose initials JM appear in the lower field. The state name NORTH CAROLINA arcs across the upper legend, with the date of statehood 1789 below it, while FIRST FLIGHT is inscribed beneath the aircraft. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM curves along the lower rim, flanking the reverse date 2001.
