Reverse description A large numeral 5 occupies the central field, with the denomination CENTS inscribed directly beneath it, the two elements enclosed within a wreath of olive branches tied at the base. The legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA encircles the design along the rim. The composition is clean and boldly typographic, consistent with Barber's utilitarian pattern reverse designs of the period.
