Any LED can be a 5 volt LED with an appropriate dropping resistor. ;-)

That being said, there *is* an LED rated for operation directly from a 5

I noticed in the new Mouser catalog that there is a line of LED lamps
designed as direcet drop-ins for incandesent lamps. Horribly expensive
at this time.
