The 1854 $5 Liberty Gold coin, minted in Dahlonega, is one of the notable examples of early U.S. gold coinage. This coin features the Liberty Head design, which is characterized by a portrait of Lady Liberty on the obverse and a classic eagle on the reverse. The Dahlonega Mint was integral to gold coin production during the California Gold Rush, and coins from this mint are sought after by collectors due to their historical significance and relative rarity in certain years. The "No Motto" designation indicates that this particular issue does not carry the "In God We Trust" inscription, making it more distinctive among other gold coins of the era.
