The 1857 $5 Liberty Gold coin, minted in Dahlonega, Georgia, is part of the Liberty Head series and features the classic design with Lady Liberty on the obverse and an eagle on the reverse. This coin is significant as it was produced during the California Gold Rush era, with a limited mintage associated with the Dahlonega Mint. The "No Motto" refers to the absence of the inscription "In God We Trust" on the coin, which was implemented in later years. Collectors prize this coin for its historical context and relative scarcity, especially in higher grades.
