I think it's nice looking, and has good subject matter. It has the Statue of Liberty with flag on the obverse, and the Liberty bell on the reverse. There has been America "tribute" coins produced in the past, but I think this one is a little different.

Not .9999! not .999, not even .9 (90%) this means that this is actually less than 1/4 of 1/10oz. gold, or about 1/40oz gold (not exactly.)
