Description
2005-W Proof Gold Eagle, 1/4 oz, PCGS PR70. This exceptional 2005-W Proof Gold Eagle represents the finest quality available for this popular modern gold issue. Struck at the West Point Mint and graded PCGS PR70, this coin achieves a perfect proof grade, indicating flawless surfaces with ideal striking characteristics and pristine eye appeal. The 1/4 ounce Gold Eagle is one of the most collected fractional sizes in the American Eagle series, combining accessibility with the prestige of U.S. Mint gold coinage. The proof finish showcases the full artistry of John Merkl's iconic reverse eagle design and Miley's obverse portrait of Lady Liberty, with deep cameo contrast between the mirrored fields and frosted devices. As a perfect PR70 example, this coin represents the ultimate grade for proof gold eagles and would be highly desirable to both specialists in the Eagle series and advanced collectors seeking gem proof coinage. PCGS Certificate #99977.
