# 1998-W Proof Platinum Eagle 1/4 oz PCGS PR70 DCAM. A pristine exemplar of the Statue of Liberty Platinum Proof from the highly collectible late 1990s American Platinum Eagle series, this flawless specimen represents the pinnacle of numismatic achievement. Struck at the West Point Mint in a remarkably limited mintage of just 14,873 pieces, this coin showcases the exceptional artistry of designer John M. Mercanti. Graded a perfect PCGS PR70 Deep Cameo, this 1/4 oz platinum coin embodies numismatic perfection.
