US Mint - The United States Mint (Mint) announced today that it is releasing the fifth and final coin in the five-year First Amendment to the United States Constitution Platinum Proof Coin Series on February 20, at noon EST. Mintage is limited to 9,000 coins. Orders are limited to three units per household for the first 24 hours.
Launched in 2021 and continuing through 2025, the First Amendment to the United States Constitution Platinum Proof Coin Series reflects the five freedoms enumerated in the First Amendment to the United States Constitution: "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. Liberty grows to a thing of strength and beauty from a seed—our Bill of Rights. Each of the freedoms enumerated in the First Amendment contributes to the growth and development of the Nation.
Artistic Infusion Program (AIP) Designer Donna Weaver created all obverse (heads) designs in this series, and United States Mint Chief Engraver Joseph Menna sculpted them.
The obverse design features a mature, spreading, impressive oak tree between the inscription "WITH THE RIGHT TO PETITION LIBERTY ENDURES." The oak, known for its strength, can live up to 200 years and is a symbol of endurance. Additional inscriptions are "E PLURIBUS UNUM," "IN GOD WE TRUST," and "2025."
The common reverse design for this series depicts an eagle in flight and an olive branch in its talons. Inscriptions are "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA," "$100," "1 OZ.," and ".9995 PLATINUM." It was designed by AIP Designer Patricia Lucas-Morris and sculpted by former United States Mint Lead Sculptor now AIP Designer Don Everhart.
Each coin is encapsulated and then placed in a stylish clamshell and presentation box. An image of the obverse design is incorporated on the outer packaging sleeve and the certificate of authenticity.
