Description
1991-P Proof Gold Eagle 1/4 oz, NGC PF70. This exceptional 1991-P Proof Gold Eagle represents one of the finest examples available to collectors of modern U.S. bullion coinage. The piece features the iconic design by Augustus Saint-Gaudens on the obverse, depicting Lady Liberty in profile, with the reverse showcasing an eagle in flight carrying an olive branch—a design that has become synonymous with American precious metals collecting. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint and certified by NGC with a perfect grade of PF70, this quarter-ounce proof gold coin displays the full mirror fields and frosted devices characteristic of premium proof coinage from this era. The 1991 date falls within the early years of the American Eagle Proof program, making it a desirable piece for both type collectors and those pursuing complete date runs of the series. The 1/4 oz denomination contains approximately 0.2500 troy ounces of pure gold, with a composition of 91.67% gold and 8.33% copper. The exceptional NGC PF70 designation confirms the coin's superior eye appeal and technical execution, with Certificate Number 9851 providing full authentication and pedigree documentation.
