| Reverse description | A figure of a young James Buchanan is depicted in relief, seated and leaning over a counter or ledger in a general store setting, surrounded by shelves with goods and barrels in the background. The scene fills the entire field with no exergue or legend, and engravers' initials are faintly visible near the lower right rim. |
