# 1997 $10 Quarter-Ounce Gold Eagle PCGS MS70. A pristine gem of American numismatic excellence, this 1997 Quarter-Ounce Gold Eagle represents the pinnacle of modern gold coinage. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint and graded a flawless MS70 by PCGS, this coin is a true collector's treasure with remarkable significance. The obverse features Augustus Saint-Gaudens' iconic design of Lady Liberty striding confidently forward, embodying the artistic pinnacle of American coin design. The reverse, crafted by Miley Busiek, depicts a majestic eagle in flight, symbolizing the strength and freedom of the United States. Composed of 91.67% gold, this coin represents a perfect marriage of artistic beauty and precious metal investment. With a total population of just 109 coins graded at this perfect MS70 level, this specimen is exceptionally rare. The coin's technical specifications are impeccable: weighing 8.48 grams with a 22mm diameter and reeded edge, it exemplifies the precision of modern U.S. Mint production. From a mintage of 108,805, only a tiny fraction have achieved this supreme grade, making this piece a true numismatic highlight.
