Encircling her portrait are thirteen stars, the year 1881, and the Latin motto 'E Pluribus Unum'. On the reverse, a heraldic bald eagle holds both a bundle of arrows and an olive branch. The inscriptions 'United States of America' and 'One Dollar' frame the eagle, while the motto 'In God We Trust' is positioned above. The 'S' mint mark is visible, identifying its origin from the San Francisco facility.
