Reverse description The central device features two clasped hands in a handshake — the left hand with a cuffed sleeve bearing three buttons, the right bare — symbolizing treaty between the United States government and Native American nations. Above the handshake, a tomahawk and a peace pipe cross diagonally in the upper field. The legend PEACE AND FRIENDSHIP arcs across the upper and lower periphery with AND placed centrally between the two devices.
