This gold 5 Dollar was issued by the United States of America in the year 1995 with the theme of Civil War Battlefield. The American Civil War was one of an important event of the history of the United States of America. Between 1861 and 1865 many battles were fought across the continent, from Vermont to the New Mexico Territory, and beyond. This four-year struggle between north and south had changed the role of the women in society. The origin of the war was very complex; some of the issues were the issue of slavery and the interpretations of the Constitution and the rules, rights, and qualifications that it embodied.

The obverse of this coin depicts a Civil War bugler on horseback sounding out a call to the troops. The reverse of this depicts a bald eagle holding a banner that reads "Let us Protect and Preserve."
