Description
1987 Gold Eagle 1/10 oz, NGC MS70. This exceptional 1987 American Gold Eagle represents one of the most desirable early dates in the iconic series. Struck in one-tenth troy ounce of pure gold, this coin features Augustus Saint-Gaudens' timeless obverse design of Lady Liberty striding forward with torch held high, paired with a powerful reverse depicting an eagle landing on a nest with an olive branch. Certified by NGC as MS70, this coin represents the highest grade achievable and reflects pristine condition with exceptional eye appeal. The surfaces display the characteristic luster and striking detail that collectors seek in premium examples of this popular bullion issue. The 1987 date falls within the early production years of the American Gold Eagle program, which commenced in 1986, making early dates particularly sought after by both numismatists and precious metals investors. The American Gold Eagle remains one of the world's most recognized and actively traded bullion coins, combining government backing, beautiful artistry, and intrinsic precious metal value. An MS70 example of this vintage is a significant find for the discerning collector. *NGC Certificate #9810*
