This $100 gold high relief coin is the latest release in the spectacular American Liberty series, coins with contemporary depictions of Liberty. Minted in one troy ounce of .9999 pure gold this coin has a face value of $100, twice the amount of any other U.S. gold coin.
Coins in the American Liberty series have extremely limited mintages and special high relief designs giving them a three-dimensional appearance. The technology used to strike these coins was simply not available only a decade ago! These are the highest quality and most advanced gold coins produced by the U.S. Mint.
Design
The extremely detailed design features a bristlecone pine, a species native to California, Nevada, and Utah, thought to be the oldest living organisms on Earth, living up to 5,000 years. Bristlecone pines grow in places where other plants cannot and are often the species first to repopulate the land after cataclysmic changes, such as a lava run or glacial runoff. The equally impressive reverse design depicts a young bald eagle standing on a rocky outcropping moments before it takes flight.
Low Mintage
Low mintage and superb eye appeal are key components of coin collecting. Only 12,500 coins were minted at West Point and only 3,125 coins have been designated as Advance Releases by the U.S. Mint. Advance Release is an official designation of the U.S. Mint not a coin grading service.
John Dannreuther Signature and PCGS Founders Mark of Distinction Label
This one-time only design is one of only 3,125 coins designated as Advance Release by the U.S. Mint. The coin is hand signed by John Dannreuther, a founder of PCGS and is presented in the exclusive Founders Mark of Distinction holder.
