You can search for and extract the lowest potential energy structure
via energy post processing with sander (imin=5) and cpptraj, but that
may not be a good representative of the free energy minimum since that
will also depend on system entropy. To that end you are probably
better off using something like the representative structure from the
most populated cluster obtained from cluster analysis, but whether
that will actually be representative of your free energy minimum will
largely depend on the quality of your sampling. For more on sampling
in MD simulations I recommend checking out the following article:

Hope this helps,
