| Obverse description | The obverse presents a richly detailed composite design in high relief celebrating the Texas Sesquicentennial, featuring a central equestrian figure of a cowboy, a Native American warrior with shield and lance, a space shuttle launch, an oil derrick, the Dallas skyline, the Alamo facade, a rose, an armadillo, and a football helmet, all set within a segmented field evoking different eras of Texas history. The legend '150th ANNIVERSARY OF TEXAS' arcs along the upper rim, flanked by the dates '1836' and '1986', with 'SESQUICENTENNIAL' inscribed across the large block letters spelling 'TEXAS' at left. The engraver's initials 'RH' are visible in the lower central field. |
