This gives the coin a unique and striking appearance, as well as a high degree of durability and resistance to wear. The obverse of the coin depicts a Native American chief in full headdress, facing left. The word "LIBERTY" is inscribed above his head, and the date "1914" is below his neck.
The reverse shows a bald eagle standing on a bundle of arrows and an olive branch, symbolizing war and peace. The words "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "FIVE DOLLARS" are around the rim, and the motto "E PLURIBUS UNUM" is above the eagle's head.
The coin has a diameter of 21.6 mm, a weight of 8.36 grams, and a composition of 90% gold and 10% copper². The coin was minted at the Philadelphia Mint, and has no mint mark.
