Obverse description A corpulent, nude male figure sits astride a large sheaf of grain with legs apart and arms raised, rendered in bold relief against a flat field. The designer's initials and date 'F.H. 1923' appear in the upper field above the figure. Legends flanking the figure and along the lower rim condemn the war profiteer regardless of religious affiliation.
