Fingerprint: BIG HIT title in red slab capitals with purple shadow, arched orange-red cursive Million above it, stylised baseball stadium with curved red outfield wall, batter in white uniform mid-swing at centre, crouching catcher in striped yellow jersey with tan mitt lower-left, small distant fielder, crowded grandstand dots, bottom third split into yellow home-team and red visitor-team score grids
The headline is a huge two-word title where an orange-red cursive 'Million' sits arched above slab block letters 'BIG HIT' in red with a purple drop shadow, with the small script 'Chicago Coins' tucked to its left. Below it a cartoon baseball scene shows a batter in a white uniform mid-swing over a curved red outfield wall and a green diamond. The bottom of the glass is dominated by two contrasting number boxes - a yellow 'HOME TEAM RUNS' grid and a red 'VISITOR TEAM RUNS' grid, each holding a full ten-number set. A crest of white score ovals with red, blue, green and purple numbers 1-4 crowns the top edge.

A portrait-orientation backglass set in a varnished light-wood cabinet frame, with a pale sky-blue sky background and a green grass field. Across the very top, a curved row of five white scoring ovals outlined in dark blue carry the numbers 1 (red), 2 (blue), 3 (green) and 4 (purple/magenta), with large slanted score ovals below them reading 500000, 600000, 700000, 800000, 900000, then a second staggered row 100000, 200000, 300000, 400000. Slanted upward at the top is an orange-red cursive script logo reading 'Million', and below it huge block capitals read 'BIG HIT' in red with purple shadowing and a white highlight, with a smaller red-and-yellow script 'Chicago Coins' at the left of BIG. The middle band shows a stylised baseball stadium: a curved red outfield wall, a packed crowd of tiny dots and dashes in the stands, small green flagpoles with triangular flags along the top rail, and small flags at each end. Three baseball figures appear: a large batter in a white uniform with a red cap swinging a grey bat at centre, a crouching catcher in a yellow-and-dark-striped jersey with a big tan mitt at lower left, and a small distant fielder in white on the grass at right. The bottom third is split into two scoring panels, a yellow-tinted one at left headed 'HOME TEAM RUNS' and a red one at right headed 'VISITOR TEAM RUNS'.
