| Reverse description | The central field features a three-quarter portrait of General Henry Knox in 18th-century military uniform, positioned before an architectural rendering of the United States Bullion Depository at Fort Knox. To the left of the portrait, two standard 400-troy-ounce gold bars inscribed FINE GOLD 999.9 NET WT 400 oz are depicted in relief. A cursive facsimile signature of H. Knox appears to the right of the portrait. The legend FORT KNOX arches across the upper field within a banner, and the series title THE HISTORY OF GOLD appears prominently in the lower exergue. |

| Additional information |
Fort Knox has never been formally audited by an independent body. The last physical inspection of any kind occurred in 1974, a congressional visit that examined roughly 3% of the stored gold. This coin's subject remains, officially, unverified in full — a peculiarity that gives the theme more edge than most bullion-themed commemoratives manage.
