This coin is part of a series of commemorative coins that were authorized under the Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Commemorative Coin Act. The "S" mint mark indicates that the coin was struck at the United States Mint facility in San Francisco. This is the numerical grade assigned to the coin on the Sheldon Coin Grading Scale, which ranges from 1 to 70. A PF69 grade indicates that the coin is nearly perfect, with only minor imperfections visible under close examination. It is an excellent grade and suggests a well-struck, well-preserved proof coin. NGC uses different labels for their graded coins, and the "Brown Label" is one of them. The label color is a cosmetic aspect and doesn't affect the coin's grade.
