Liberty faces left on the obverse, wearing a spiked radiate crown with LIBERTY lettered across the band. Her hair falls in long sculpted waves past the shoulder, and a draped garment gathers at the base of the neck. The relief stands well off the field, with the crown points rising sharply and the hair cut strand by strand. 1776 sits in the left field and 2026 in the right, with 250TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA stacked in four lines below the date and marked with a small star.
The reverse gives the eagle full wingspan across the field. The bird descends with wings raised and head turned right, talons closed around a flagstaff, with the American flag furling and streaming out to both sides beneath it. Every flight feather is individually worked, and the stars are raised on the folded canton. 250TH ANNIVERSARY arcs along the upper rim above OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. A star sits in each side field, with 1776 over 2026 near the bottom and 3G SILVER .999 FINE stamped along the lower rim.
Both faces carry a raised outer rim and a satin finish that emphasizes the sculpted surfaces. High relief on a small planchet shows fingerprints readily, so use a capsule or flip for storage.
