Exciting Interpretation of American Liberty
Obverse: The obverse features the powerful form of a wild American Mustang, energetically bucking to toss a western style saddle off of its back, with a stylized dawning sun graphic in the background. The image is an homage the perseverance of the emerging nation to rid itself of British rule during the American Revolutionary War. Inscriptions include “LIBERTY” and “2022.”
Reverse: A meticulously detailed illustration of the U.S. national bird is located on the reverse, in an alert, right facing pose, with its beak partially opened. The inscriptions “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” and the Philadelphia Mint mark “P” appear beneath the eagle.
Virtually Flawless Proof 69 Ultra Cameo
This 1 oz. silver 2022-P United States American Liberty Proof medal was submitted to the Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) for review within thirty days of its release. Featuring an exceptionally sharp strike, nearly perfect surfaces and outstanding eye appeal, the medal was deemed worthy of the impressive grade of Proof 69. The medal received the additional designation of Ultra Cameo for the remarkable amount of visual contrast between its frosted design elements and mirrored backgrounds. The medal is encapsulated in a sonically sealed NGC protective holder with a colorful American Liberty Flag style certification label confirming its prestigious First Releases pedigree.
