Obverse
The "Flowing Hair" Liberty head on the right, and the vintage. In spite of a big work of remodelling of the head, this design did not meet more success. It was abandoned for good afterwards. There is a branch above the date. On some very rare pieces, there are strawberry leaves with a bud instead. See comments for more details.

The face value (in all letters) surrounded by a plant crown. This design was well received by the public. The fraction is now under the bow of the ribbon.
