2020-W $100 1-oz Platinum Eagle Pursuit of Happiness Proof PCGS PR70 DCAM First Day of Issue w/Mercanti Signature
2020 Platinum Eagle Proof Concludes U.S. Mint’s “Preamble” Series
In 2018, the U.S. Mint began a new Platinum Eagle series honoring the Preamble to the Declaration of Independence. Following the success off 2018’s “Life” and 2019’s “Liberty,” 2020 arrives with the incredible “Pursuit of Happiness” release to close out this amazing series.
Fabulously struck by the West Point Mint in one ounce of highly pure 99.95% platinum, this $100 legal-tender U.S. coin shows a vibrant agricultural scene that depicts Lady Liberty harvesting the fruits of her labors while a young girl playfully chases a butterfly by her side. Engraved just to left of Liberty is the word “Happiness” in a script that mimics the writing style used on the original Declaration of Independence document written by Thomas Jefferson in 1776.
As with the previous two years in the series, the awe-inspiring design for the 2020 coin was created by Artistic Infusion Program (AIP) Designer Justin Kunz. The design is even more magnificent thanks to its dazzling proof finish. In fact, every coin available in this offer has been graded by the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) as being in flawless Proof-70 Deep Cameo (PR70 DCAM) condition, a distinction that means these perfectly-graded proofs will have ZERO imperfections — showing all features and fields exactly as the engraver and mint intended! In addition, PCGS has further certified that each of these proofs are First Day of Issue (FDI) coins, a designation that means these coins were received by PCGS or a PCGS-approved depository by the release date or on the business day within 24 hours of the official release date.
What’s more, each con offered here will come sonically sealed in an acrylic holder and encapsulated with a label personally signed by the legendary John M. Mercanti, the U.S. Mint’s 12th Chief Engraver! A giant in the numismatic world, Mercanti has produced more coin and medal designs than any person in U.S. Mint history
Just 13,000 of these coins were released by the U.S. Mint on January 30, 2020 with a limit of only one coin per household. The limited edition was far less than expected — especially since the mint released 20,000 Platinum Proofs in 2018 and 15,000 in 2019. Plus, only 200 proofs are available certified by PCGS as FDI with labels signed by Mercanti. Do not miss your chance to own one of the hottest coins of 2020; reserve one of these coins right now!
