Avers

France, symbolized by Minerva, helmeted and armed with a spear, protecting the young America from the British leopard, thanks to her shield adorned with three lilies, in the guise of the infant Hercules, seated in his swaddling clothes on a shield (representing the military origins of the new nation), smothering two snakes, referring to the victories won over the armies of generals Burgoyne at Saratoga and Cornwallis at Yorktown. The legend is taken from Book III of Horace's Odes.

Revers

The left profile bust of a slender young woman "Liberty", an American representation of Liberty. Her untied hair fluttering in the wind, a staff topped by the bonnet of liberty resting on her right shoulder. She inspired Galle to engrave "French Liberty" for the monetary proof in 1792.
