The inscription reads Omnia reliquit servare rempublicam, meaning "he relinquished everything to save the Republic".

Classical Latin would have treated "rem publicam" as two separate words, but this is 18th century Latin designed by a Frenchman for Americans . . . say no more.

The reverse has an abbreviated version of the words Virtutis Præmium Societas Cincinnatorum Instituta Anno Domini 1783,"Reward of valour of the Society of the Cincinnati, founded 1783 AD".

"The Cincinnati" is a very odd expression, treating the word as if it were the name of a tribe or a people.
