Description
2001-W Proof Platinum Eagle 1/2 oz, NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo. This exceptional 2001-W Proof Platinum Eagle represents the pinnacle of modern precious metal coinage. The 1/2 ounce denomination combines elegant design with substantial platinum content, making it a cornerstone piece for serious collectors. Struck at the West Point Mint, this proof example showcases the meticulous craftsmanship characteristic of America's platinum eagle program. Graded NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo (Certificate #99788), this coin represents the highest achievable grade for proof coins. The designation indicates virtually flawless surfaces with exceptional contrast between the deeply mirrored fields and fully frosted devices. The brown label designation reflects the era of NGC certification, adding to its collectible appeal among vintage slab enthusiasts. The platinum eagle program, which began in 1997, has become increasingly popular with investors and collectors seeking exposure to precious metals in numismatic form. The 1/2 ounce size offers an accessible entry point to platinum ownership while maintaining strong secondary market demand. Perfect specimens at this grade level are seldom encountered, making this piece particularly desirable for advanced collectors. Starting Bid: $1,100
