Coin Details
Obverse
The "Flowing Hair" Liberty head on the right, and the vintage. This design was not well received by the public, as flowing hair was considered daring for its time.
Latin
LIBERTY 1793
Reverse
The face value (in words and fractions) surrounded by a chain. This design wasn't well received either, as the chain didn't give the impression of freedom. That's why it was later replaced by a plant crown.
Latin
UNITED STATES OF AMERI. ONE CENT 1/100
