Description
2008-W Proof Gold Buffalo 1/10 oz, Ed Moy Signature, NGC PF70. This exceptional 2008-W American Buffalo Gold Proof represents one of the most sought-after modern gold commemoratives from the United States Mint. The coin features the iconic design by James Earle Fraser, with the reverse displaying the American bison and the obverse showcasing Lady Liberty. Struck at the West Point Mint (indicated by the W mintmark), this fractional ounce issue was produced in limited quantities as part of the popular American Buffalo Gold series. Graded NGC PF70 (Perfect Proof), this example demonstrates flawless striking and preservation, achieving the highest possible grade for proof coinage. The designation includes the signature of Ed Moy, the 38th Director of the United States Mint, whose tenure witnessed the reintroduction and development of the American Buffalo Gold program. The pristine surfaces and sharp details reflect the exacting standards of modern Mint production and careful handling throughout its life. The 2008-W Proof Buffalo 1/10 oz remains highly desirable among modern gold collectors and those focused on fractional weight precious metal issues. This PF70 example, with its exceptional eye appeal and perfect technical execution, represents a significant offering for advanced collectors seeking premium specimens of 21st-century American gold coinage.
