| Obverse description | Left-facing draped bust of Liberty occupies the central field, wearing a Phrygian-style cap adorned with a five-pointed star and flowing curled hair falling to the truncation. The portrait is executed in high relief with fine engraving detail characteristic of W.J. Taylor's London workshop. The circumferential legend REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA arcs along the upper border in raised Latin capitals. Three five-pointed stars are evenly spaced along the lower border, flanking a central star at the base, with the engraver's initials W.J.T. incorporated discreetly into the obverse lettering. |
