All 2018 Proof American Gold Liberty coins feature the same design which debuted in 2017 on the 1 oz American Gold Liberty coins. Those coins were released by the US Mint to mark 225 years of American coinage. The US Mint issued, for the first time, an American coin design that depicted Liberty in a female form not based upon ancient Greek and Roman interpretations, or any other Western image. This depiction of Liberty in left-profile relief captures the essence of freedom and determination of America with an African-American woman as the inspiration for Liberty.
On the obverse of the 2018-W 1/10 oz Proof American Gold Liberty Coin is the design of Liberty introduced in 2017. This left-profile portrait captures Liberty with some familiar thematic designs, such as the use of “Liberty” across the top of the design field, her hair pulled back into a bun behind her head, and a crown of stars.
The reverse of the Proof American Gold Liberty Coin bears the image of a powerful bald eagle in flight. With its eyes fixed ahead, it flies with determination and strength toward a goal in the distance with the concentration to get where it aims to go. Engravings on this face of the coin include its face value, weight, metal content, purity, nation of issue, and the national motto. Produced by the West Point Mint in New York, you’ll also notice a “W” mint mark on this face of the coin below the eagle’s wing in the lower-left field.
