Description
2017-W Proof Gold Eagle 1/4 oz, Ed Moy Signature Label, NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo. This exceptional specimen represents the pinnacle of modern American gold coinage. The 2017-W Proof Gold Eagle 1/4 oz was struck at the West Point Mint and features the signature label of Ed Moy, the former Director of the United States Mint. The coin showcases the iconic reverse design by Miley Busiek depicting an eagle landing on a nest with an olive branch, paired with Augustus Saint-Gaudens' celebrated Liberty obverse. Graded NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo, this coin represents the highest achievable grade with exceptional eye appeal. The "Ultra Cameo" designation indicates exceptional contrast between the deeply mirrored fields and the fully frosted devices—a characteristic rarely seen on gold proofs. The technical perfection of this strike is evident in the sharp definition of every design element and the pristine surfaces that have earned the perfect numeric grade. The 1/4 oz American Gold Eagle remains one of the most sought-after fractional gold bullion coins in the world. This particular specimen, bearing the West Point mint mark and housed in an NGC holder, represents an outstanding example of 21st-century American precious metals coinage. The combination of perfect grade, exceptional eye appeal, and the desirable Ed Moy signature label makes this an attractive acquisition for both proof gold specialists and general collectors.
