A beautiful Gem with both sides displaying frosty luster with silvery brilliance, complemented by clean, satiny surfaces. The obverse shield is sharply defined, with strong clarity in the cross, leaves, and surrounding ornamentation. The reverse is equally bold, with fully rendered stars and a crisply defined numeral 5. Surface preservation is excellent, with only trivial contact marks visible under magnification, none distracting from the overall premium Gem eye appeal. The coin possesses originality and technical quality well above average for the issue, making it worthy of CAC approval!
