The Design
The obverse displays an image of Lady Liberty facing right, with flowing hair and draped attire, giving the coin its “Draped Bust” name. It is believed to be inspired by a portrait by artist Gilbert Stuart, modeled after socialite Ann Willing Bingham.
It is inscribed with the word “LIBERTY” and the minting year.
From 1801 to 1807, the reverse design featured an intricately detailed eagle bearing a shield, clutching arrows and an olive branch, reflecting the U.S. Great Seal.
Encircling the eagle is the inscription “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.”
