The 2015 American Liberty High Relief Gold Coin will add
breadth and depth to the collections of numismatists
everywhere. The high-relief 24-karat gold coin, with a
mintage limit of 50,000 and a nominal denomination of
$100, was minted at West Point, N.Y.
The product’s obverse design features a “modern” depiction
of Liberty. The reverse design features a bald eagle in flight,
clutching an olive branch in its talons. Both depictions take full
advantage of the high-relief format. The design was strongly
influenced by the Citizens Coinage Advisory Committee,
an 11-member body established in 2003 by Congress to
advise the Secretary of the Treasury on the themes and
designs of all U.S. coins and medals. The U.S. Commission
of Fine Arts, a seven-member group established by Congress
in 1910, also reviewed candidate designs and made recommendations.
The United States Mint fulfilled renowned sculptor Augustus
Saint-Gaudens’ original vision of an ultra high relief double
eagle gold coin with the release of the 2009 Ultra High Relief
Double Eagle Gold Coin, closing one era of classic American
coin design and ushering in a new one. The 2015 American
Liberty High Relief Gold Coin is the latest in that new era, a
piece that renders contemporary designs using the latest in
modern digital and manufacturing technology.
United States Mint Artistic Infusion Program artist Justin Kunz
has created a modern depiction of Liberty for the obverse
(heads side), evoking the ideals of liberty, courage and hope.
Artistic Infusion Program artist Paul Balan’s reverse (tails)
design depicts an American eagle rising in flight, gripping a
branch in its talons as an embodiment of freedom.
