She is portrayed wearing a Phrygian cap, a laurel wreath, and a coronet crown. Surrounding her image is a ring of 13 stars, symbolizing the original states of the union.

On the reverse side of the 1883-O Morgan Dollar, you will find the heraldic eagle. Unlike other designs, this version does not include a national shield.
