Description

The 1993 (W) Proof Bill of Rights Commemorative Five Dollar Gold is a proof commemorative dollar struck at the West Point Mint. The U.S. Mint produced 78,651 examples. The gold coin in the 1993 Bill of Rights program, this $5 piece depicts Madison in contemplation of the document he championed. The obverse features James Madison studying the Bill of Rights, with thirteen stars along the right edge, while the reverse displays an eagle holding a scroll with 'Bill of Rights' below, a Madison quote about equal laws, and a torch of freedom and laurel branch. Designed by Scott R. Blazek/Joseph D. Pena. Struck in 90% gold, 10% copper, weighing 8.36 grams, 21.6 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #9673. The Bill of Rights $5 gold is the premium denomination in the program and combines classical imagery with Madison's own words about American liberty.
