2023 American Liberty High Relief Gold Coin
Background
The 2023 American Liberty High Relief Gold Coin is the sixth coin in the American Liberty series. Since its debut in 2015, the American Liberty Gold Coin and Silver Medal Program features coins and medals with modern depictions of allegorical Liberty on the obverse. The reverse features complementary eagle designs. The designs represent what liberty means to each of us individually as Americans, or collectively as a nation.
The obverse design of the 2023 American Liberty coin shows a bristlecone pine, a species native to California, Nevada, and Utah. It is thought to be one the oldest living organisms on Earth, living up to 5,000 years. Bristlecone pines grow in places where other plants cannot, and are often the species that is first to repopulate the land after cataclysmic changes such as a lava run or glacial runoff.
Characteristics
The obverse (heads) features a bristlecone pine, thought to be one the oldest living organisms on Earth.
The reverse (tails) depicts a young bald eagle standing on a rocky outcropping moments before it takes flight.
