The obverse depicts Lady Liberty walking forward with a raised torch and olive branch while an American bald eagle flies beside her. The New York City skyline appears in the background, symbolizing the nation’s growth and endurance. The design combines themes of liberty, peace, strength, and national identity into a modern patriotic composition.
The reverse features a portrait of Thomas Jefferson, chosen for his role as principal author of the Declaration of Independence. His inclusion ties the round directly to the concept of independence as the first featured virtue in the series.

What makes this round stand out visually is the combination of oversized format and deep relief. The raised devices sit noticeably above the fields, creating a layered three-dimensional effect that is difficult to achieve on standard bullion issues. Pieces like this are often compared to modern high-relief art medals and premium commemorative releases rather than ordinary silver rounds.
