The 2021 (W) Proof American Liberty High Relief .9999 Fine Gold One Hundred Dollar is a proof $100 gold coin struck at the West Point Mint, part of the American Liberty Gold 2015 to Date series.

The obverse features Beth Zaiken's mustang bucking off a western saddle against a rising sun and the reverse displays Richard Masters's close view of an eagle's head with its beak open. A modern issue from an era of rotating coin designs, collector-focused programs, and renewed interest in numismatic artistry. As a proof issue, this coin was struck multiple times on specially prepared polished planchets using polished dies, producing mirror-like fields and frosted design elements.
