Description
2016-W Proof Gold Eagle, 1/10 oz, NGC PF70. This exceptional 2016-W Proof Gold Eagle represents one of the finest examples of the American Eagle proof program. The coin features the iconic obverse design by Augustus Saint-Gaudens, depicting Lady Liberty in full stride, while the reverse showcases a family of eagles by Miley Busiek. Struck at the West Point Mint, as indicated by the "W" mintmark, this fractional ounce gold proof was produced in limited quantities for collectors. Graded NGC PF70, this specimen achieves the highest certification level, indicating virtually perfect preservation with no visible imperfections under magnification. The pristine surfaces display the characteristic mirror fields and frosted design elements that define the proof finish, with full strike detail throughout. This grade represents the pinnacle of condition for modern proof coinage. As a Red Book listing, this coin maintains strong collector appeal and represents an excellent entry point into the prestigious American Eagle proof series. The combination of perfect certification, West Point provenance, and fractional gold content makes this an attractive holding for both numismatists and precious metals investors.
