| Reverse description | A highly detailed naturalistic depiction of a Great Blue Heron (Ardea herodias) standing upright in profile on a rocky shoreline, its long neck curved gracefully and plumage rendered with exceptional engraving detail. The bird is shown with its elongated bill pointing to the right, long legs planted on the rocky ground, and distinctive breast and dorsal feathers finely incised. The engraver's monogram of Gilroy Roberts appears in the field to the right of the bird, with the Franklin Mint mintmark visible below. The curved legend FIVE DOLLARS arcs along the lower left periphery of the coin. |
