| Obverse description | The obverse features two figures in profile — a Revolutionary War-era soldier and a Native American or frontier figure — facing each other in high relief, evoking the American Bicentennial theme. The legend MEN OF VISION arcs across the top of the field, with the dates 1776 and 1976 flanking the figures at the bottom. A border of stars encircles the entire design. |
