Seated Liberty 1 ounce of copper

Seated Liberty 1 Ounce Copper is a one‑ounce collector medal inspired by the historic Seated Liberty design known from 19th‑century United States coins. The use of the classic Liberty motif and a ring of stars gives the issue a distinctly numismatic character, evoking the gold and silver circulation coins of bygone eras. This piece is an attractive choice for enthusiasts of American minting history who seek an affordable interpretation of one of the most recognizable Liberty designs.

The medal is intended for collectors building thematic sets devoted to the symbolism of liberty and historical U.S. mint patterns. The standard AVDP one‑ounce weight and high copper fineness correspond to popular issues from private mints, making it easier to compose cohesive series with other patriotic medals. Clear metal and weight markings make this issue transparent and easy to catalog, and it presents well both in a capsule and in a collection album.

Obverse depicts the seated personification of Liberty, holding a flagstaff in one hand and a shield inscribed “LIBERTY” in the other, encircled by a wreath of stars; at the bottom appears the date “1839,” referring to the early years of this historical coin type.

Reverse features a detailed composition with an eagle with outstretched wings, bearing on its chest a heraldic shield with stars and the inscription “USA”; above the bird the flag of the United States is waving. The whole is framed by a decorative wreath with a ribbon, while the rim bears the inscriptions “COPPER .999 FINE” and “ONE AVDP OUNCE”.
