| Obverse description | Within a circular raised border, a caricature figure in high relief depicting a fist bearing a swastika punching upward into the face of a grimacing lion-like effigy representing Huey P. Long, with a crown flying off to the upper left. In the field, two faucet handles flank the central motif, evoking a bathroom sink setting. The date MCMXXXIII appears to the right in the field, and the surrounding legend reads along the lower border. |
