HALL NAT'L MEMORIAL STATUE OF LIBERTY 100th NGC MS 67 Authorized by act of Congress, the Liberty Series is one of my favorite sets within National Commemorative Medals to collect.

Originally a three medal series, the first medal depicts The Federal Hall National Memorial on the reverse. Federal Hall National Memorial on Wall Street, was the site of America’s first Capitol.
