| Reverse description | Central field reproduces the official Town Seal of Litchfield, depicting a large oak tree growing from a hillside in high relief, with a scrolled banner bearing the town motto arching above. The engraver's initials H.S.J. appear in the lower field beneath the tree, with the founding date 1719 in the exergue. The surrounding legend, separated by six six-pointed stars, identifies the seal and town name. |
