| Reverse description | Plain field with the large numeral '1' prominently displayed in the center, serving as the denomination indicator. The curved legend 'A. BECHTLER.' arcs along the upper periphery in serif capitals with intervening stops, while 'DOL.:' appears in the lower field accompanied by a five-pointed star to the right. The overall design is typographically austere and utilitarian, consistent with the privately minted territorial gold coinage produced at the Bechtler establishment in Rutherfordton, North Carolina. A fine milled border frames the design. |
