The obverse shows the Head of Liberty facing left wearing a full feathered Indian headdress. Thirteen small stars are above the head near the rim from 10:00 to 2:00. The date is directly beneath the truncation of the neck. LIBERTY is on the headband. The obverse shows a majestic eagle facing left perched on a bundle of arrows with an olive branch. The legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is above the eagle near the rim while the motto E PLURIBUS UNUM is in three lines just above the eagle's back. The denomination TEN DOLLARS is directly below the eagle. From late 1908 until 1933, the motto IN GOD WE TRUST appears in the left reverse field near the eagle's breast. The mintmark, if any, is located to the left and slightly below the end of the arrows except for the 1908-D No Motto on which the D is above and to the left of the end of the olive branch.
