Description

# 1997-W Proof Platinum Eagle 1/2 oz - PCGS PR70 DCAM. An exceptional modern platinum proof from the prestigious American Platinum Eagle series, this stunning 1997-W half-ounce issue represents the pinnacle of numismatic excellence. Struck at the West Point Mint under the artistic direction of John M. Mercanti, this coin epitomizes the pinnacle of modern proof coinage. Graded a flawless PCGS Proof 70 Deep Cameo, this specimen is among the absolute finest known of its type. With a remarkably low population of just 286 coins at this grade level, it represents an extraordinary opportunity for the discerning platinum collector. The coin features the iconic Statue of Liberty design, beautifully rendered with exceptional deep mirror proof fields and frosted devices that create a stunning visual contrast. Composed of 99.95% pure platinum and weighing 15.56 grams, this *1/2 oz* proof coin was part of a limited mintage of only 15,431 pieces. The West Point Mint precision is evident in every meticulously struck detail, making this an outstanding example of modern American numismatic art. The coin's PCGS Blue Label certification further enhances its collectibility and investment potential. Provenance Highlights: - Mint Location: West Point. - Designer: John M. Mercanti. - PCGS Certification: 10799446. - Grade: PR70 DCAM. - Composition: 99.95% Platinum
