It features two laurel-wreathed, oval portraits of Democratic presidential and vice-presidential candidates James K. Polk (left) and George M. Dallas (right).

Below the portraits are acanthus cornucopias . . .The campaign slogan "Polk, The Young Hickory. Dallas And Victory" appears in a rising sun above the eagle."
