Description
2008-W Proof Gold Buffalo 1/2 oz Brown Label, NGC PF70. This exceptional 2008-W Proof Gold Buffalo represents one of the finest examples of this popular modern commemorative series. Struck at the West Point Mint and certified by NGC with a perfect *PF70* grade, this half-ounce gold proof displays the full numismatic appeal collectors seek in this iconic design. The Buffalo gold proof series, introduced in 2008, features James Earle Fraser's celebrated buffalo reverse design, originally seen on the reverse of the Buffalo nickel (1913-1938). The obverse showcases a Native American profile, completing this culturally significant pairing. As a half-ounce specimen in pristine *PF70* condition, this piece exhibits flawless surfaces with full original mint bloom and sharp strike details throughout. The brown label designation indicates this coin was graded during NGC's earlier certification period, adding a vintage appeal to collectors who appreciate the historical evolution of grading holder designs. With NGC Certificate Number 399936, this piece represents both strong gold bullion value and numismatic premium for its perfect grade and special status within the modern gold proof market.
