| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a hand, representing Eleanor Roosevelt, lighting a candle against a stylized rendering of the Earth's horizon, symbolizing her enduring humanitarian legacy and global impact. The warm glow of the candle flame radiates upward and outward over the curved horizon line, evoking enlightenment and hope. The design was inspired by a tribute from Adlai Stevenson following her death: 'She would rather light a candle than curse the darkness, and her glow has warmed the world.' The legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA arcs along the upper rim, with E PLURIBUS UNUM and the denomination $10 appearing in the field. The weight and purity inscriptions 1/2 OZ. .9999 FINE GOLD are also present, along with the engraver's initials RG. |
