Question

inscription on the coin
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The legend is the inscription on a coin that conveys information about which country minted it and for what purpose. On regular issue coinage, the legend tells us the nation that minted it, and perhaps the denomination. On U.S. coinage, the legends include United States of America, the denomination, and the date.

Answer 2

LEGEND = This is the name given to the coin inscription.For example "OBVERSE LEGEND" means, "the coin inscription on the head side."For many years the only denomination was the penny which had the name of the moneyer and the mint on the reverse legend.
