Lady Liberty is featured on front-facing relief on the obverse of 2021 American Eagle Gold Coins. This design from Augustus Saint-Gaudens was created in 1907 and features Libertys full-length figure. She is walking toward the viewer holding up a torch in her right hand and an olive branch in her left. Inscriptions on this face of the coin include LIBERTY, 2021, and the initials of Augustus Saint-Gaudens below the date mark.

This all-new design comes from Jennie Norris and showcases the natural splendor of the national symbol of the United States.

Below the design of the eagle are inscriptions of 5 DOLLARS and 1/10 OZ. FINE GOLD.
