| Obverse description | The obverse depicts the monumental entrance gateway of the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, rendered in a bold, architectural style. Two prominent headless figural sculptures flank the colonnade entrance, serving as the central design focus. The date 1984 and the inscription XXIII OLYMPIAD appear within the design, along with the mint city designation LOS ANGELES. The national motto IN GOD WE TRUST and the word LIBERTY are inscribed in the field, completing the legend. The composition evokes classical Olympic imagery through its reference to ancient Greco-Roman architectural forms. |
