2017 NGC PF70 0 High Relief
Are you looking for a piece that is so beautiful it will stop people in their tracks? Then look no further than this beautiful High Relief.
The Mint introduced this piece to mark its 225th anniversary. Emblematic figures of liberty have graced American coins since the founding of the United States Mint in 1792. The 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. Liberty is portrayed as an African American woman for the first time. The American Liberty 225th Anniversary Gold Coin is 99.99 percent, 24-karat gold. It is the first high relief coin with a proof finish ever minted by the United States.
This piece only had a mintage limit of just over 30,000 pieces and carries the highest denomination of any coin produced by the Mint of 0. Less than 2% of these coins have achieved a perfect Mint State 70 grade by NGC. At first glance, you will notice how deep and beautiful the high relief detail is on this piece which is achieved by 3mm thick planchets being struck with 65 metric tons of pressure. This is one of those truly exquisite pieces that deserve a place in your collection.
