Obverse description Central field depicts the Indian Wampum Memorial at Sudbury, featuring a tall totem pole in relief flanked by the wampum monument structure of upright cedar logs strung with simulated shell beads; two small figures are visible at the base. A border of beaded wampum shells frames the design on the left, and a multi-line descriptive legend fills the lower field below the main device.
