Relatively high mintage at 3,100 coins (a mintage drop from more recent preceding years). More common in most grades because most of the original mintage survived. It becomes scarce as a high-end gem. Gradually scarcer, to a limited degree, with cameo surfaces and deep cameo surfaces actually quite rare for this issue.
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.
