The arrival of these Puritan exiles changed the course of history in New England and North America at large.

The arrival of the Mayflower was one of the seminal moments marking a change in direction for the New World. While settlements such as Jamestown were already established in America, the settlements the Puritans would found in New England would prove more stable from the outset, though not without the assistance of the local Wampanoag people.

The coins are directly housed inside of protective capsules and set within blue presentation boxes courtesy of the US Mint.

Obverse design elements on the 2020 Reverse Proof American Gold Mayflower Voyage Coins include a depiction of a Wampanoag family. The family is shown standing near the shoreline as the Mayflower appears on the horizon. The young child in the design field has a foot resting upon the design rim of the central field. The Wampanoag people lived throughout southeastern Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Martha’s Vineyard, and Nantucket during the 17^th century and were the first to have contact with the Puritans arriving in the region from England.

Reverse features of the 2020 1/4 oz American Gold 400^th Anniversary of the Mayflower Voyage Coins offer a glimpse of two pilgrims. These side-profile portraits show a man and woman gazing off into the distance, no doubt looking out from the bow of the ship as the Mayflower approaches the coast of the New World.
