The 1848 $5 Liberty Gold coin, minted in Dahlonega, is part of the Liberty Head series and is notable for lacking the motto "In God We Trust," which was absent on certain early issues. This coin features a design with Lady Liberty on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse, characteristic of U.S. gold coins of that era. Dahlonega Mint, operational from 1838 to 1861, primarily produced gold coins due to the nearby gold rush, making this coin a significant collectible for both numismatists and gold rush enthusiasts. Its rarity and historical context contribute to its value within the collectible coin market.
