Description
1988-P Proof Gold Eagle 1/10 oz, NGC PF70. This exceptional 1988-P Proof Gold Eagle represents the finest quality achievable in the fractional gold eagle series. The 1/10 ounce denomination struck at the Philadelphia Mint combines the iconic design elements that have made American Gold Eagles among the world's most recognized bullion coins. The reverse features John Merkanti's majestic eagle design, while the obverse displays Augustus Saint-Gaudens' timeless Lady Liberty motif. Certified by NGC as PF70, this coin represents a perfect strike with no imperfections visible to the naked eye. The brown label designation indicates this specimen was graded during NGC's earlier certification period. The pristine proof finish displays brilliant cameo contrast between the frosted devices and mirror fields, characteristic of premium proof production from the U.S. Mint. Fractional gold eagles from the 1980s remain popular with both bullion investors and collectors seeking high-quality precious metal holdings. The combination of early date, perfect grade, and the prestige of proof status makes this 1/10 ounce eagle an attractive offering for collectors focused on premium American gold coinage. *Certificate Number: 9819*
