These certificates are not just currency; they are true works of American art.

2023 $5 Fiji Silver Antiqued Black Eagle 5oz UHR MS70 NGC

In contrast to the familiar image of George Washington we see on today's $1 bills, the Black Eagle Silver Certificate features a bold and imposing American Bald Eagle front and center. This magnificent design, with the large eagle and 13 stars symbolizing the original 13 American Colonies, is now beautifully recreated in Ultra-High Relief (UHR) on a coin made of pure gold. What's particularly impressive is that the coin's overall appearance is meticulously crafted to replicate the vintage look of a classic gold coin. It's a stunning and artistic representation of American heritage.
