Each of the $5 US Mint Commemorative Gold Coins in this listing has a near-perfect certification. A proof coin in PR69 condition exhibits full, original mint luster with a maximum of two minor detracting flaws present on the design elements or surface areas. These flaws are limited to minuscule contact marks or hairlines and must be located outside the primary focal points of the coin.
This APR 57 listing offers these near-perfect specimens from random years. We cannot guarantee the specific date mark, design, or even grading house label you will receive with your purchase. We only guarantee each coin has earned a PR69 certification. All coins are chosen at random once your payment is processed. If you buy more than one, please note you could receive matching dates and designs, as well as labels from the same grading house.
On the obverse and reverse fields of these coins, you will find designs celebrating important American figures, historical events, and other facets of American society, culture, and history. Examples of designs include the image of former American presidents or host cities for the Olympic Games.
The US Mint canceled its early gold commemorative coin programs in 1954 with the administration of President Eisenhower citing a lack of interest in collectible gold coins as the primary reason.
