Yes, minimum penalty outlined by Constitution is 5 years and a $10k fine.
Interesting blurb found while searching for 1789 dollar value:
$10,000 in 1787 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $302,310 today.
People also live almost three times as long now as they did back then.
$300k should be the minimum fine for treason, on top of a 15-year minimum prison term, with no possibility of pardon or parole. There are varying levels of treasonous behavior. Do worse shit, pay more money and more time in prison...or the grave.
