On February 6, 2026, the United States Mint released the first coin in its new commemorative "Charters of Freedom" series: the 2026 platinum proof coin dedicated to the Declaration of Independence. This special issue celebrates the 250th anniversary of American independence and marks the beginning of a trilogy that will also include coins dedicated to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

A coin that symbolizes the birth of a nation

This one-ounce platinum coin pays homage to one of the most important founding documents in American history: the Declaration of Independence of 1776. This document proclaimed the formal separation of the thirteen colonies from British rule and laid the ideological foundations of the new country, drawing inspiration from the Enlightenment ideals of liberty, equality, and popular sovereignty.

The "Charters of Freedom" series uses natural motifs to represent the transformative impact of America's founding documents, collectively illustrating a living embodiment of American democracy.

Artistic design and symbolism

 

The obverse of the coin depicts sunbeams emerging from storm clouds, symbolizing both the dawn of a new nation born from the turmoil of revolution and the Enlightenment ideals that influenced the Declaration of Independence. A quill, representing the Declaration, extends across the landscape, marking the foundation of our nation and the power of revolutionary ideas to catalyze change. The design features 13 stars along the rim, representing the 13 original colonies. The inscriptions include “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “2026,” and “DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE.”

 

The common reverse of this series depicts an eagle in flight, holding an olive branch in its talons. The inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA”, “$100”, “1 OZ.” and “.9995 PLATINUM”.

The coins are comprised of one ounce of platinum, feature a $ 100 face, and are minted in Proof quality. There will be five pieces that are emitted between 2021 and 2025, one per year.

The First Amendment to the United States Constitution prohibits the creation of any law regarding the official establishment of a religion, which prevents the free practice of religion, which reduces freedom of expression, which violates the freedom of the press, which interferes with the right of peaceful assembly or that prohibits seeking compensation for government grievances. It was adopted on December 15, 1791, as the first of the ten amendments to the Bill of Rights (the collective name given to the first ten amendments to the United States Constitution passed on December 15, 1791).

This series uses the life cycle of oak from seedling to mighty oak as a metaphor for the growth of the United States, as a nation that values ​​freedom. Freedom becomes something strong and beautiful from a seed. Each of the freedoms listed in the First Amendment contributes to the growth and development of the Nation.

Noi monede comemorative din Austria - 21.12.2019

We can now acquire the famous coins of the Austrian Mint, Vienna Philharmonic, in its 2020 versions. I show you some beautiful images of them and, in addition, we will know more about the history of these prestigious coins that are collected and admired in All parts of the world.

The Vienna Philharmonic coin in one ounce of gold (troy ounce): it is the queen of investment coins and the best selling size. First introduced in 1989 along with the 1/4 ounce version, it contains a whole ounce of gold (31.1 grams). The Troy ounce is the unit of weight used in the trade of precious metals and the classical weight for investment currencies. It has a face value of 100 euros.

 

First issued in October 1989, the gold coin of the Vienna Philharmonic is the most successful investment currency in Europe. According to the World Gold Council, it was the best selling gold coin in the world in 1992, 1995, 1996 and 2000.

History and design of the coin

 

As of November 1998, a change in Austrian law allowed the issuance of pure gold coins for investment purposes. Thus the idea of ​​designing a gold coin that symbolized Austria arose. Numerous possible issues for the currency were discussed until finally music was chosen, a harmonious ambassador whose language is understood throughout the world. And what better way to symbolize music than the world famous Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra? 

 

 

The coin was designed by Thomas Pesendorfer, the main engraver of the Austrian Mint. For the reverse, he chose eight characteristic orchestral instruments: four violins on each side of a cello in the foreground and the Viennese horn, bassoon and harp behind. The obverse presents the famous pipe organ of the Viennese Musikverein Goldener Saal, recognized worldwide as a backdrop for the New Year's concerts of the Philharmonic. The organ box was designed by the architect Theophil von Hansen, responsible for the entire building. The original organ was built by Friedrich Ladegast in 1872 and since then the organ has been renewed and replaced several times, the last one in 2011. Visually, the organ body remains unchanged despite technical alterations. Above the organ, the words "Republik Oesterreich" are in a semicircle, while the weight and purity of the coin, with the date of issue, are under the balustrade of the organ. The facial value appears on the bottom edge of the coin.

The enduring motive of the currency has contributed to its international appeal. He has also been a great seller in the domestic market, since investing in gold has always been popular among Austrians. One way to visualize the success of the Vienna Philharmonic gold coin is to imagine that if all the coins sold were stacked on top of each other, they would exceed 8,850 meters of Mount Everest. In fact, they would form a pillar over 15,000 meters high.

The Silver Ounce

 

Given the enthusiastic acceptance that the Vienna Philharmonic in gold has enjoyed among investors around the world, it was decided that a virtually identical version with Thomas Pesendorfer's original design for gold coins should also appear on silver coins. A full ounce of silver at an attractive price: perfect to invest, collect or give away.

 

 

When the Austrian Mint for the first time issued the silver coin of the Vienna Philharmonic in February 2008, it was the first time that a European bullion or silver investment coin arrived on the market with 99 purity silver , 9 percent. The market had been waiting for a product of these characteristics for a long time and, just one month after the date of issuance, the number one million coin was minted. By the end of 2008, eight million silver coins had been sold from the Vienna Philharmonic. Since sales began on February 1, 2008, this silver coin has been minted exclusively in the 1 ounce version and in an amount tailored to market demand.

 

 

For a few years we can also find this coin composed of an ounce of platinum.
