Struck in 90 percent silver, each coin contains 0.7734 troy ounces of precious metal, preserved in Brilliant Uncirculated condition. On the obverse, a left-facing portrait of Liberty is depicted wearing a Phrygian cap, which features a band inscribed with the word LIBERTY. The reverse showcases a bald eagle with its wings spread, grasping a bundle of arrows and an olive branch in its talons. The San Francisco mint mark, a small S, is positioned on the reverse side, located just above the denomination.
