Description
2000-W Proof Platinum Eagle, 1/4 oz, PCGS PR70. This exceptional 2000-W Proof Platinum Eagle represents one of the finest examples of this iconic one-quarter ounce platinum bullion coin. Struck at the West Point Mint, this issue marks a significant entry in the American Platinum Eagle series, which debuted in 1997 as the nation's official platinum bullion coinage program. The coin has achieved a perfect PCGS PR70 grade, indicating flawless surfaces with full original mint luster and pristine proof characteristics. At this elite grade level, the coin displays exceptional eye appeal with sharp strike details and mirror-like fields that are hallmarks of West Point Mint proof production. The reverse features the eagle and shield design, while the obverse showcases Lady Liberty in profile. As a fractional platinum eagle from the early years of the series, this piece holds appeal for both bullion investors and serious numismatists. The one-quarter ounce denomination offers accessibility while maintaining the prestige and purity associated with United States platinum coinage. This PR70 example represents the ultimate in preservation for this date and mint mark combination. PCGS Certification Number: 99780
