This date has a low mintage of 1,150 coins of which most were saved, making this issue tough but extremely accessible. Commonly found in most grades and a scarcity only as a gem. Difficult to locate with cameo surfaces and rare with deep cameo surfaces. Normally comes white with some searching required for toners. This issue is the first in the proof series in which deep cameos are accessible.
Obverse Description
A shield flanked on the left and right by leaves topped with a cross with arrows positioned behind at the bottom so the arrow heads and shanks protrude at the sides. The motto IN GOD WE TRUST appears at the top periphery with the date positioned at the bottom center.
Reverse Description
A large numeral 5 surrounded by 13 stars centered in the design with UNITED STATES OF AMERICA * CENTS around the periphery.
