The obverse of each coin pays homage to our nationâ€TMs past, featuring a rattlesnake preparing to strike from a coiled position in the grass. The hissing snake is based off of Franklinâ€TMs design and is surrounded by the inscriptions “DONâ€TMT TREAD ON ME" and "ESTABLISHED IN 1754.†The original sketch unified American colonies and was illustrated on the Gadsden flag. The reverse showcases a spectacular bald eagle standing proudly above a banner reading “Eternal Vigilance,†which is a snippet from a quote often attributed to Jefferson in the early to mid-1800s. A variation of the quote reads, “Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty,†meaning the nationâ€TMs fragile freedom should be properly cared for. Inscriptions read “THE PRICE OF LIBERTY†above the eagle with the coinâ€TMs weight and fineness below.
