The Artistry Behind the Coin

Obverse: The obverse features Joe Fitzgerald's modified portrait of Thomas Jefferson, created specifically for the Westward Journey series. This forward-facing profile presents a more contemporary interpretation of our third President, departing from the traditional left-facing portrait. The word "LIBERTY" appears prominently, with the date "2005" below and the mint mark "P" signifying Philadelphia Mint production. This fresh artistic approach brought renewed attention to Jefferson's role in expanding American territory through the Louisiana Purchase.

Reverse: The reverse showcases Jamie Franki's magnificent American Bison design, one of the most beloved images in modern American coinage. A powerful bison stands in profile, rendered with remarkable detail that captures the strength and majesty of these iconic animals that once roamed the Great Plains in vast herds. The inscriptions "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "E PLURIBUS UNUM" frame the design, with "FIVE CENTS" below. This design pays homage to the wildlife encountered by Lewis and Clark during their historic expedition and symbolizes the untamed American frontier.
