Description: 2021 San Francisco Mint Silver Proof Set Tuskegee Quarter NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo Advance Releases The 2021 S Proof Tuskegee Silver Quarter graded by NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo with Advanced Releases designation. 70 is a perfect grade for a coin. This coin is from the 7-Coin Silver Proof Set from the San Francisco Mint. The special San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge label further specializes this coin and helps call to attention the coins mintage at the US Mint San Francisco Mint facility. The final quarter in the America the Beautiful Quarters Program series honoring the Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site in Alabama. The reverse design depicts a Tuskegee Airman pilot suiting up to join the fight during World War II with the Moton Field control tower in the background. The pilot looks upward with pride and confidence as two P- 51 Mustangs pass overhead. The inscription “THEY FOUGHT TWO WARS” is arced across the top as a reference to the dual battles the Tuskegee Airmen fought – fascism abroad and racial discrimination at home. Inscriptions are “TUSKEGEE AIRMEN,” “ALABAMA,” “2021,” and “E PLURIBUS UNUM.” Advanced Release is the only official designation made by the US Mint. Advanced Releases coins are coins sold to the 18 largest coin buyers from the US Mint but represent only a fraction of the coins sold by the US Mint. To be eligible for the Advanced Releases designation NGC must have the coins before the official release date from the US Mint. The US Mint normally provides Advanced Releases coins to the largest dealers two days before the official release, meaning they must be immediately submitted to the grading companies to receive this extremely limited and desirable designation. Proof coins are coins that the US Mint makes differently than standard circulating coins used for change. Proof coins are manufactured by striking the coin numerous times under increased pressure to make the field (flat portion of the coin) have a mirrored finish. Proof coins are specifically made for collectors since they have better eye appeal than standard circulating coins. Grading companies usually annotate proof coins with either PR or PF before the number grade. Additionally, exceptional coins will be given Ultra Cameo or DCAM (deep cameo) designation for coins where the difference between the surface of the coin’s devices and the mirrored finish of the coin’s field are very pronounced.
