Description

The 2021 (W) Proof National Law Enforcement Memorial and Museum Commemorative Five Dollar Gold is a proof dollar struck at the West Point Mint, part of the Modern Commemorative Five Dollar Gold (1984-Date) series. With a mintage of 50,000, this is a scarce issue — the lower-mintage of the two mint variants. The obverse features designs varying by commemorative issue and the reverse displays designs varying by commemorative issue. 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 prized by collectors. Struck at the West Point Mint, originally a bullion depository that became a full coin production facility, specializing in commemorative and bullion issues. Auction record: $6,770 PR70DCAM 10-15-2021 eBay. Struck in 90% gold 6% silver 4, weighing 8.359 grams, 21.6 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #862139.
