Obv: Standard Silver design with a bust of Liberty facing right, a plain tiara on her head and her hair tied in a bun at the back. The legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is around the periphery and the motto IN GOD WE TRUST is inscribed on a scroll below. Rev: A wreath of oak and laurel leaves surrounds the denomination 10 CENTS, the inscription STANDARD SILVER above and the date 1869 below.
