Description
# 2008-W Burnished Gold Eagle - PCGS MS70 Blue Label. An exceptional Burnished American Gold Eagle from a remarkably low mintage year, this pristine 2008-W Gold Eagle represents a pinnacle of modern numismatic collectibility. Struck at the West Point Mint with exceptional care, this *1 oz* gold specimen epitomizes the pinnacle of strike quality and preservation. Graded a flawless PCGS MS70, this coin represents the absolute zenith of condition for the issue. With a mere 954 total coins graded at this level, the population is extraordinarily limited, making this an especially desirable example for sophisticated collectors. The 2008 Burnished Gold Eagle is particularly notable for its exceptionally low mintage of just 11,908 pieces, rendering it one of the scarcest modern Gold Eagle variants. Featuring the iconic Augustus Saint-Gaudens design obverse, complemented by Miley Busiek's reverse eagle motif, this coin boasts 91.67% gold composition with precise 33.93g weight. The W mint mark signifies its West Point origin, adding further numismatic significance. The Blue Label certification further enhances its collectible appeal and investment potential. Provenance Highlights: - PCGS Certification: #15442879. - Mintage: 11,908 pieces. - Condition: Perfect MS70. - Composition: 91.67% Gold. - Price Guide Value: $3,200. A truly exceptional modern gold coin that represents both numismatic artistry and scarcity in its finest form.
