Absolutely Stunning Design! A Rare Collaboration Between the U.S. Mint and The Royal Mint

For the First Time, Chief Engravers from Two Mints Join Forces to Create Liberty & Britannia!

What you have here is the companion pieces struck by the U.S. Mint, part of the second-ever collaboration between the U.S. Mint and The Royal Mint (TRM), and the FIRST TIME a Chief Engraver from The Royal Mint and the U.S. Mint have collaborated together on ONE design. Plus, also for the first time ever, these gorgeous proofs are available encapsulated with labels featuring the hand-signed signatures of FOUR numismatic legends!

 

A Historic Collaboration Between Chief Engravers of Two of the World’s Largest and Oldest Mints
The United States and the United Kingdom have long shared a close relationship, based on common values and ideals. In this project, these two historic Mints have come together in a groundbreaking creative partnership, featuring the talent and skills of each mint’s Chief Engraver to produce a design unifying Liberty and Britannia on one design. The U.S. Mint Chief Engraver, Joseph F. Menna, and The Royal Mint Chief Engraver, Gordon Summers, have created a stunning reverse design celebrating the harmony of the figures while giving each equal prominence in the design.


Spectacular Liberty and Britannia Design
The collaborative design highlights the female allegorical figures of Liberty and Britannia, featured on many coins in the two countries over the years, but never together on one unified design. American Liberty has appeared on U.S. coinage since the early years of the Nation, and represents the American cornerstone value that is so important to Americans. Britannia, a staple on British coinage since the late 1600s, has long been the national personification of Britain, and has come to be a symbol of national pride and unity. Their appearance identifies each figure—Liberty carries a torch and is adorned with stars, while Britannia wields a trident and wears a Corinthian helmet. 

Unlike the obverse on the version struck by The Royal Mint, which featured an effigy of King Charles III, the obverse design on these proofs struck by the U.S. Mint has a design by U.S. Mint Chief Engraver Joseph Menna pairing a bristlecone pine and an English yew tree separated by the Atlantic Ocean, with a sun rising above it, heralding new possibilities for both nations.

The proofs feature the inscriptions “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” and “LIBERTY AND BRITANNIA.”


Struck in Pure Gold and Silver
These extraordinary gold and silver proofs are available struck in one-ounce of high-purity 99.99% gold ($100 legal tender) and one ounce of 99.9% fine silver (no legal tender value).  

 

Proofs Are Struck to A Higher Standard of Quality
The exquisite proof finish offers a much higher standard of beauty, quality, and craftsmanship than coins with non-proof finishes. Proof planchets (blanks) are specially treated, hand-polished, and cleaned to ensure high-quality strikes, then fed into presses fitted with specially polished dies and struck multiple times, unlike non-proofs which are struck only once. The extra strikes give proofs a glamorous shine and make intricate, razor-sharp details of the design pop against polished, mirror-like fields. While non-proofs are struck on high-speed presses by the thousands, these proofs are struck individually by highly skilled U.S. Mint artisans creating numismatic masterpieces. 


Certified Flawless PF70 UC and First Day of Issue by NGC
Proofs and coins are graded on a 70-point scale, with a grade of 70 representing absolute perfection, even under magnification. There is no higher grade, and that’s what you have here. These 2024 Liberty & Britannia Proofs have been certified as perfect Proof-70 Ultra Cameo (PF70 UC) by Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC), one of the top coin-grading services in the world. The Ultra Cameo (UC) designation signifies these proofs possess an intense frosted finish on both sides, with highly polished fields accenting the raised elements. 

 

Each Proof also carries a First Day of Issue (FDI) designation—which means these proofs were purchased within one day of the first day the mint made them available for sale. First Day of Issue proofs are sought-after because they are fresh and sharp, and because there are so few of them compared to the overall population. 

 

These Proofs are not just the best of the best, they’re the first of the best.

FIRST TIME EVER ! Exclusive Labels Hand-Signed by FOUR NUMISMATIC GIANTS!
Each proof is encapsulated with a label featuring signatures from your choice of four (or two) numismatic legends: Gordon Summers, serving as the Chief Engraver and Designer of The Royal Mint since 2008, also collaborated on this design; designer Martin Jennings, who created the first definitive portrait of King Charles III featured on The Royal Mint’s version of this release; John Mercanti, the 12th Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint and the man who has produced more coin and medal designs than any employee in U.S. Mint history; and David J. Ryder, AMS ambassador and the former 34th and 39th Director of the U.S. Mint, who was named one of Coin World's Most Influential People in Numismatics (1960-2020). It was during David’s second term that the U.S. Mint began their collaboration efforts with mints around the world. This is the FIRST TIME that GovMint or NGC has EVER offered labels that feature FOUR signatures in a single holder!

 

Choose proofs encapsulated with labels featuring all four signatures, or proofs encapsulated with two signatures, from Mercanti and Ryder.

 

Low Worldwide Mintages 
These 2024 Liberty & Britannia Proofs have limited worldwide mintages—just 5,498 of the one-ounce gold coins and just 32,818 of the one-ounce silver medals were authorized. All the proofs here are in perfect PF70 UC condition, designated as First Day of Issue, with a dual hand-signed label.
