Description
2000-W Proof Gold Eagle, 1/4 oz, PCGS PR70. This exceptional 2000-W Proof Gold Eagle represents one of the finest examples of the West Point Mint's proof gold coinage from the millennium year. The 1/4 ounce denomination, containing .9167 fine gold, has long been favored by both collectors and investors for its balance of precious metal content and accessibility. The coin has achieved a perfect PCGS PR70 grade, indicating flawless surfaces with no visible imperfections under magnification. This exceptional certification reflects the careful handling and pristine condition of this proof issue. The "W" mintmark denotes production at the West Point Mint, adding to its appeal among collectors who seek examples from all five U.S. Mint facilities. The proof finish displays the characteristic mirror fields and frosted devices that define the artistry of modern U.S. Mint proof coinage. The reverse features an eagle in flight carrying an olive branch, while the obverse bears Liberty's profile. As a millennium-year issue from the early 2000s, this coin holds both numismatic significance and intrinsic precious metal value. PCGS Certificate #99951
