2019 W $100 American Liberty High Relief PCGS SP70 DMPL WestPoint Mint Hoard – John Dannreuther Signature
America’s Most Beautiful Coin – Rare Deep Mirror Proof Like (DMPL) Designation
West Point Mint Hoard Provenance
One of the allures of modern coin collecting is “Eye Appeal”. This $100 Liberty enhanced uncirculated coin was struck at the West Point Mint from one ounce of pure 24 karat gold and is a modern masterpiece. The U.S. Mint used a special minting process to create the outstanding high relief three-dimensional appearance.
The leading coin grading service PCGS has certified this coin in perfect SP70 condition and awarded it the exceptionally rare Deep Mirror Proof Like designation (DMPL). There is no finer condition or surface strike attainable than DMPL. In fact, PCGS has awarded fewer than 2,000 U.S. coins in history with the extremely desirable and highly collectible DMPL designation.
In addition to the seldom-seen Deep Mirror Proof Like designation, PCGS has also recorded the provenance of this coin as belonging to the famed West Point Mint hoard, the first government coin hoard since 1973! PCGS
