A scene with a large caduceus at center, with a crown at the top of the staff. The caduceus divides the scene into two portions: to the left, in the upper half, is the University of Pennsylvania's coat of arms, featuring two books and a dolphin on the chief, and a chevron with three roundels beneath. The motto Leges sine moribus vanae surrounds the shield. To the lower left is a woman displaying two rulers and a compass. To the right of the caduceus, in the upper right-hand corner, is the University of Chicago's coat of arms, featuring the motto Crescat scientia; vita excolatur in the chief, and a large phoenix beneath. To the lower right is a woman playing the mandolin.

In the center of the image, is an oval-shaped coat of arms, divided in the center by a chevron. Two scallop shells are seen in the upper half, and one beneath. At the helm is a knight's helmet; at the crest is an arm clad in armor, grasping a sword. At the left of the image stands Apollo; to the right is Athena. Beneath the shield is an unidentified face.
At center sits a woman and two cherubs on either side of her, one of which holds a caduceus. Surrounding this is a border of both oak and bay leaves. Beneath the image are several books, one opened.
The back view of a person with arms raised standing tiptoe. The figure stands before a doorway, with hieroglyphics above and a water urn below. Beyond the doorway, the sun rises from behind large cliffs with water beneath.
A seated woman, holding a flask. On both sides are men holding torches, and at the bottom, a fire on a stand. The sun can be seen behind the head of the woman.

A scene in which a woman stands, on tiptoe, beneath a large pine tree. She holds a caduceus in her right arm, balances a bowl on her right hip, and with her left hand she points somewhere in the distance. She stands at the forefront of a turbulent body of water, with rocks beneath and a cliff in the background. Above is a partly cloudy sky with the silhouette of a bird high above.
A large tree can be seen behind a stone wall that stands along a path. The tree is half flowering, half dead. In the forefront are two children—a boy who stands upon the wall reaching at the branches; and a girl who sits upon the wall, reading a book. In the upper right-hand corner, behind the initials of the plate's owner, is part of a building, namely a roof and a steeple.
