Description
# 1990 Gold Eagle 1/10 oz, NGC MS70. A remarkable example of the classic American Gold Eagle series, this 1990 issue represents the pinnacle of modern U.S. bullion coinage. The 1/10 ounce denomination offers an accessible entry point for collectors seeking genuine U.S. Mint gold in the iconic Eagle design. This piece has achieved the coveted NGC MS70 grade, representing a perfect or near-perfect strike with exceptional eye appeal. The coin exhibits the hallmark characteristics of the Gold Eagle program: Augustus Saint-Gaudens' timeless obverse design featuring Liberty striding forward, and Miley Busiek's powerful reverse depicting an eagle landing on a nest with an olive branch. The 1990 date represents a significant year in the continued popularity of the American Gold Eagle bullion program. The technical specifications are consistent with all 1/10 oz American Gold Eagles: .9167 fine gold content, weighing 3.393 grams. This particular example, certified under NGC Certificate #9838, combines investment-grade precious metal content with numismatic appeal for the discerning collector.
