1860 Gold Pattern $5 PR CAM J-271 Values

Details

1860 $5. Broad-diameter planchet pattern intended to eliminate the deception of slicing a gold coin in half and scooping out the gold in the center, replacing it with a lesser-value metal.

Obverse: Liberty Head by Longacre, facing right, wearing Phrygian cap, three stars above forehead, ribbon with LIBERTY at neck, stars surrounding, date 1860 below.

Reverse: Perched eagle with undulating ribbon above head, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA / FIVE DOLLARS around border; V is an inverted A.
