Product Details
Following the popular 2016 Silver medal, which sold out from the U.S. Mint in less than 10 minutes, the anticipated 2017 medal is here. Celebrating the Mint’s 225th year anniversary, the Silver medal is a counterpart to the 2017-W American Liberty Gold Proof $100 coin, bearing the same design of Lady Liberty. This set bears a contemporary rendition of Lady Liberty on four 1 oz Silver rounds, each minted in different finishes at a different branch of the United States Mint – Philadelphia (Reverse Proof), Denver (Uncirculated), San Francisco (Proof), and West Point (Enhanced Uncirculated).
Product Highlights:
