Reverse description The central device depicts two clasped hands — a symbol of trade and partnership — rendered in fine engraved detail with cuffed sleeves, set within an otherwise plain field. The numeral 100 appears above the clasped hands and again below them, denoting the coin's value in cents. The circular legend ONE DOLLAR PIECE runs around the periphery, with the date 1791 inscribed in the lower exergue. A milled bead border frames the entire design.
