| Reverse description | The reverse presents a dramatic high-relief sculptural depiction of Abraham Lincoln's face as rendered in the style of the Mount Rushmore National Memorial, with the monumental carved granite texture faithfully reproduced across the field. Lincoln's solemn, forward-facing visage dominates the composition, his deeply set eyes, prominent brow, and characteristic bone structure rendered with striking artistic detail evoking the monumental scale of the original carving. Rocky mountain cliff formations frame the effigy above and to the sides, reinforcing the Mount Rushmore reference. The inscription 'ABRAHAM LINCOLN' appears in raised Latin lettering across the upper portion of the field. |
