2015-W 1 oz $100 American Liberty High Relief Gold Coin (Scruffy)
The 2015-W 1 oz $100 American Liberty High Relief Gold Coin, available at Bullion Exchanges, is a groundbreaking issue in modern American coinage. Struck by the prestigious West Point Mint, this coin contains 1 troy ounce of .9999 fine gold, the highest purity ever used in a U.S. Mint gold coin at the time. While this example is in Scruffy condition (showing surface marks or handling wear), it remains a highly desirable piece due to its bold design, limited mintage, and historic significance as the first U.S. gold coin to feature a $100 denomination.
The 2015 American Liberty High Relief Gold Coin introduced a daring new vision of Lady Liberty, presented in a dynamic, modern design that redefined America’s most iconic symbol. Created by artist Justin Kunz and sculpted by Phebe Hemphill, the obverse portrays Liberty holding the American flag and a flaming torch, crowned with stars and embodying the strength and optimism of a diverse nation. The reverse, designed by Paul Balan and sculpted by Don Everhart, depicts a majestic bald eagle soaring in flight with an olive branch in its talons—symbolizing resilience, peace, and the enduring spirit of the United States.
