The obverse of the coin shows "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA", the head of Liberty wearing a feather head dress of a Native American and the year of production. The word "LIBERTY" appears on the band of the head dress as is required on all United States coins. From 1859 to 1864 the design did not feature any mark of the designer.

The reverse featured "ONE CENT" within a wreath of oak with arrows tied at the base in a ribbon and a Federal shield above. This design continued until the end on the series in 1909 with a minor modification by William Barber in 1870.

The coins struck between 1859 and 1864 contained 88% copper and 12% nickel.
