Wayne Pearson submitted these images relating to the design of the Peace dollar. Thanks.

Here is a tracing of Teresa de Francisci, and a version of St. Gauden's Victory design.
Here are Teresa, the peace dollar design, and the St. Gauden's design modeled after Hettie Anderson. By looking at the forehead, nose, chin, lips and eye, who do you think the Peace dollar design resembles more?
I referred Wayne to Roger Burdette's research on the creation of the Peace dollar.
