Coin Highlights:
Each of the 2017-W Proof 225th Anniversary American Liberty Gold Coins offered here comes in perfect condition with a protective plastic slab. The coins exhibit full, original mint luster and have no visible detracting flaws. The included DCAM designation stands for deep-cameo and refers to the presence of strong, frosted designs and deeply-mirrored, clear fields.
Please note that the 2024 date on the included slab label indicates the timing of a special sale by the US Mint. In 2024, the US Mint auctioned back-dated coins, such as these 2017 Proof American Liberty Gold Coins. The coin’s original date is 2017, and the 2024 date on the label indicates its auction release following the US Mint’s special sale.
This stirring, modern depiction of Lady Liberty joins a long history of Liberty designs from the United States Mint. The iconic Liberty design has been a cornerstone of American coinage since the nation’s founding, evolving significantly over time while maintaining its symbolic importance. The earliest Liberty designs featured profile portraits influenced by classical Greek and Roman imagery, with the first Chief Engraver Robert Scot creating the Flowing Hair Liberty in 1793. Throughout the 19th century, Liberty took on increasingly Americanized features, notably in Christian Gobrecht’s Seated Liberty design and James B. Longacre’s Indian Head motif, which daringly portrayed Liberty wearing a Native American headdress. This modern Liberty effigy captures the ethnic and cultural diversity that makes America great.
On the obverse of the 2017-W Proof American Liberty Gold Coin, Liberty is presented in left-profile relief with African-American features, a historic first for the United States Mint. Her crown is inspired by the Statue of Freedom, which graces the dome of the U.S. Capitol. This design was crafted by Justin Kunz of the Mint’s Artistic Infusion Program and sculpted by Phebe Hemphill, a Mint Sculptor-Engraver.
The reverse side of 2017-W Proof 225th Anniversary Liberty Gold Coins highlights the majesty of the American bald eagle. Shown mid-flight, the eagle’s intricate feathers and piercing gaze capture its commanding presence. This design was created by Chris T. Costello, another contributor to the Mint’s Artistic Infusion Program, and brought to life by Michael Gaudioso, a Mint Sculptor-Engraver.
