Description
# 1992 $5 Tenth-Ounce Gold Eagle PCGS MS70. A pristine example of the coveted 1992 Gold Eagle, this *MS70* specimen represents the pinnacle of numismatic preservation and quality. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint with a limited mintage of 209,300 pieces, this tenth-ounce gold coin showcases the exceptional artistry of Augustus Saint-Gaudens' original design, beautifully interpreted by Miley Busiek. Graded a perfect MS70 by PCGS, this coin is among an elite population of just 83 examples at this grade level. Composed of 91.67% gold, with supplementary alloys of silver and copper, the coin exhibits exceptional strike quality and pristine surfaces. The 16.5mm diameter and reeded edge exemplify the meticulous craftsmanship of the United States Mint. The Gold Eagle series represents a pinnacle of modern American numismatic art, with this 1992 issue being particularly noteworthy for its low population in top-tier condition. While the original mintage approached 275,000, finding a perfect MS70 remains a significant challenge for collectors. The coin's perfect grade and low population make it an exceptional addition to any sophisticated gold coin collection.
