Obverse description Draped bust of Liberty facing right, with long flowing hair, occupying the central field. The date 1792 appears in the lower exergue beneath the bust. The circular legend LIBERTY PARENT OF SCIENCE & INDUST: surrounds the effigy, reading from the lower left, around the top, to the lower right. The coin exhibits a reeded border, and the overall style reflects the early American neoclassical engraving tradition attributed to Joseph Wright.
