The United States Mint recently published images and a release date for its 2017 American Liberty Silver Medal Set. Those attending the ANA’s World’s Fair of Money in Denver Aug. 1 to 5 had the opportunity to see the set up close.
Everyone else will have to wait a few months with its release scheduled for Oct. 19 at noon ET.
Issued as a part of the U.S. Mint’s yearlong 225th anniversary celebration, the four-medal set includes:
- one silver medal from the Philadelphia Mint in a reverse proof,
- one silver medal from the San Francisco Mint in standard proof,
- one silver medal from the Denver Mint in uncirculated, and
- one silver medal from the West Point Mint in enhanced uncirculated.
All four medals share the same designs. Obverses depict Liberty rendered as an African-American woman wearing a crown of five-pointed stars. Reverses feature an eagle in flight.
