THE LADY OF FORTUNE COIN
Each 750mL glass bottle of GOLD BAR Whiskey features an iconic ‘Lady of Fortune’ coin. This replica, collector-grade coin is hand-pressed onto each individual bottle. The coin is a symbol of true American craftsmanship and our company history.
Our coins are minted one-by-one at America’s oldest operating private mint in the United States. The mint’s history dates back to 1835, predating the introduction of the legal tender banknote.
Internationally renowned Californian artist, Steven Noble, designed the Lady of Fortune Gold Bar Whiskey coin at his home studio, in Sonoma County, California. He specializes in the scratchboard medium, which is considered by many to be one of the most difficult artistic mediums to master. This traditional method is used for creating currency and bond certificates and other highly detailed, textured artwork.
