Description

1987 Gold Eagle 1/2 oz Brown Label. A superb example of the 1987 American Gold Eagle half-ounce bullion coin, certified by NGC with a perfect grade of 70. This iconic U.S. Mint issue represents one of the most recognizable gold coins in the world, featuring Augustus Saint-Gaudens' timeless Liberty design on the obverse and a family of eagles on the reverse. The NGC 70 designation indicates this coin exhibits exceptional quality with virtually no imperfections visible to the naked eye or under magnification. The brown label designation reflects the vintage NGC certification holder associated with this particular grade. At half an ounce of .9167 fine gold content, this piece combines numismatic appeal with intrinsic bullion value, making it attractive to both collectors and investors. The 1987 Gold Eagle remains a cornerstone issue in the American Gold Eagle series, which began in 1986. Coins of this caliber and early vintage continue to attract strong collector interest, particularly those achieving perfect grades. This example represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a premium specimen of this beloved modern classic. NGC Certification Number: 9812
