Proof Gold Eagle coins are collector versions of the U.S. Mint’s beloved Gold Eagle bullion coins and have limited mintages, adding even more value to their collectibility.
This coin is graded by NGC with a grade of PF 69 – which certifies it as near perfect. This Gold Eagle has a gorgeous deep grade proof finish to it. The Early Releases designation guarantees that NGC graded it within the first 30 days of issue and the (W) means it was struck at the reputable West Point facility.
The obverse side of this coin features the image of Lady Liberty in full figure, the design of Lady Liberty originates from the 1907 Saint-Gaudens $20 Gold Double Eagle. Liberty is a symbol of enlightenment, victory, and peace – she holds a flaming torch and an olive branch. The obverse also features the mintage year and “Liberty” across the top of the coin. The reverse has an American Bald Eagle flying to its family, designed by Miley Busiek along with the denomination and weight markers.
