1860 $5. Broad-diameter planchet pattern intended to eliminate the deception of slicing a gold coin in half and scooping out the gold in the center, replacing it with a lesser-value metal.
Obverse Description

Reverse Description
Perched eagle with undulating ribbon above head, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA / FIVE DOLLARS around border; V is an inverted A.
