Created by artist Laura Verschoore and NFP.io for America’s 250th anniversary, the large-format artwork incorporates patented authentication technology embedded throughout its canvas. DLRC will offer the painting without a buyer’s fee or seller commission, allowing the full winning bid to go to the ANA. The painting depicts one of only five known 1913 Liberty Head nickels, a rarity whose mysterious origins and celebrated ownership history have fascinated collectors for generations. Beyond its numismatic subject, the painting marks the first large-format fine-art application of NFP.io’s patented secure-substrate authentication technology, according to the company.
