The Design

On the obverse, the US Mint rescued Saint Gaudens’ Lady Liberty, designed to be on the $20 Double Eagle Coin. The feminine guise marches forward in the image, carrying a torch and an olive branch, representing national progress, light, and peace. 

It also contains the word “LIBERTY,” stars representing national states, the year of issuance, and the US Capitol Building.

On the reverse, Miley Busiek presents a familiar scenery: a female Bald Eagle cherishes her hatchling under her wing while the male Eagle perches their nest. 

It also features the words “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” and the mottos “E PLURIBUS UNUM” and “IN GOD WE TRUST.” The coin’s weight, metal content, and face value are at the bottom and read: “1/2 OZ. FINE GOLD—25 DOLLARS.”

An NGC MS-70 Early Releases Coin

NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Company) works independently from sovereign mints, appraising and grading coins according to the Sheldon Scale. The scale ranges from 1 to 70 based on the coin’s condition.

According to the NGC, “Early Releases” refer to coins that were publicly available within the first 30 days of the US Mint's official release. 

MS or Mint State is a piece with the same format as a widespread circulation coin that remained uncirculated. Grade 70 is given to flawless coins.
