Struck from 22-karat gold (.9167 fine), the coin contains 1/10 troy ounce of gold and carries a $5 USD face value guaranteed by the U.S. government.
This coin is graded MS-70 by PCGS (Professional Coin Grading Service), the highest possible mint-state grade, indicating a perfect coin with full original luster and no visible imperfections even under magnification.

Additionally, the coin features the David Hall signature label—the founder of PCGS—making the slab even more desirable for collectors.
On the obverse, the coin showcases the legendary Lady Liberty design by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, holding a torch and olive branch to symbolize enlightenment and peace.
