Description
1991-P Proof Gold Eagle 1/4 oz, PCGS PR70. This exceptional 1991-P Proof Gold Eagle represents a key date in the American Eagle proof program. The 1991 issue marked the continuation of the one-quarter ounce proof format, which has been highly sought after by both gold investors and numismatic collectors since the program's inception in 1986. The coin has achieved a perfect PCGS PR70 designation, indicating flawless surfaces with full original mint bloom and exceptional eye appeal. At this elite grade, the coin displays the characteristic mirror fields and frosted devices that define the proof finish, with no imperfections visible to the naked eye. The 1991-P represents solid collector demand, particularly in premium grades where examples become increasingly scarce. The reverse features John Mercanti's iconic eagle design, while the obverse showcases Augustus Saint-Gaudens' Liberty motif adapted for the modern series. This quarter-ounce gold piece contains exactly 0.2500 troy ounces of pure gold, making it an attractive option for collectors seeking fractional American Eagles with proof finishes.
