PLATINUM PROOF DESCRIPTION
The U.S. Mint has just introduced anew Platinum Proof Coin Series honoring the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. This series features new designs on one-ounce 99.95 percent platinum proof coins. This five-year series (2021-2025) will reflect the five freedoms in the First Amendment:
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
This series uses the lifecycle of the oak tree from seedling to a mighty oak as a metaphor for our country’s growth as a Nation that values freedom.
The obverse design depicts a seedling and an acorn surrounded by the inscription “WITH FREEDOM OF RELIGION LIBERTY GROWS.” Additional inscriptions are “IN GOD WE TRUST,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” and “2021.” This fresh, new design is part of the Artistic Infusion Program by Designer Donna Weaver and sculpted by Medallic Artist Joseph Menna.
The common reverse design for this series depicts an eagle in flight, an olive branch in its talons. Inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “$100,” “1 OZ.,” and “.9995 PLATINUM.”
The reverse was also designed by Artistic Infusion Program Designer Patricia Lucas-Morris and sculpted by Medallic Artist Don Everhart.
These beautiful new Platinum coins will be offered first come, first served by the U.S. Mint February 4, 2021, at 12 noon (ET).
