The circular legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA surrounds the central design, inscribed along the periphery of the field.

Aanvullende informatie	The original 1793 Wreath cent was the first cent actually delivered by the Philadelphia Mint — the earlier Chain cent having drawn public ridicule for its crude appearance. Congress had only authorized cent production the previous year, and the Mint was still improvising on everything from planchet supply to striking pressure. None of that history transfers to this nickel brass replica, which exists purely as a curiosity piece with no numismatic standing.
