Description
The 2016 (W) National Park Service 100th Anniversary Commemorative Five Dollar Gold is a commemorative dollar struck at the West Point Mint. With a mintage of just 5,150, this is a scarce issue sought by specialists. The gold coin in the NPS centennial program, this $5 piece honors the two men most responsible for the national park idea — naturalist John Muir and President Theodore Roosevelt. The obverse features John Muir and Theodore Roosevelt with Yosemite's Half Dome in the background, while the reverse displays the National Park Service arrowhead logo. Designed by Don Everhart. Struck in 90% gold, 10% copper, weighing 8.36 grams, 21.6 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #595485. The NPS $5 gold's Muir-and-Roosevelt design captures a pivotal moment in conservation history and is popular among park enthusiasts and environmental collectors.
