2017 marks the 225th anniversary of the United States Mint. To mark this momentous occasion, we are proud to introduce the 2017 American Liberty 225th Anniversary Gold Coin™ featuring a modern rendition of Lady Liberty.
Emblematic figures of liberty have graced American coins since the founding of the United States Mint 225 years ago. Our newest Lady Liberty is a modern rendition of this iconic figure that embodies the ideals of freedom and equality first set forth in our Declaration of Independence.
American Liberty 225th Anniversary Gold Coins are minted in 99.99% 24–karat gold, in high–relief, with raised edge lettering, and a proof finish. Each coin is hand packaged in an exquisite, black lacquered hardwood presentation case and is accompanied by a companion booklet detailing the evolution of our Nation’s symbol.
The obverse (heads) features a profile of Liberty wearing a crown of stars. Inscriptions are “LIBERTY,” “1792,” “2017,” and “IN GOD WE TRUST.”
The reverse (tails) depicts a bold and powerful eagle in flight, with eyes toward opportunity and a determination to attain it. Inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “1 OZ.,” “.9999 FINE GOLD,” and “100 DOLLARS.”
