The United States Mint’s American Liberty Silver Medal Program offers a fresh perspective on the concept of American liberty, moving beyond traditional allegorical portraits of “Liberty.”
For over 230 years, the United States Mint has produced a diverse range of coins depicting liberty through female allegorical figures. The 2023 American Liberty Silver Medal continues this legacy with a bold representation of the enduring spirit of American liberty.
Struck in 99.9% fine silver, this medal features a striking obverse design of a bristlecone pine, a tree native to California, Nevada, and Utah, and one of the oldest living organisms on Earth, capable of surviving up to 5,000 years. Bristlecone pines thrive in harsh conditions and are often the first to reclaim land after significant disturbances, symbolizing resilience. The inscriptions include “LIBERTY,” “WE SHALL PERSEVERE,” and “2023.”
On the reverse, a young bald eagle stands poised on a rocky outcrop, ready to take flight, with the inscription “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.”
Each medal is meticulously crafted and presented in a sleek black box with a sleeve, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
The 2023 American Liberty Silver Medal is sure to make a powerful addition to your collection.
