2010-W Proof Gold Eagle 1/4 oz Red Book

Description

2010-W Proof Gold Eagle, 1/4 oz, NGC PF70 Ultra Cameo. This exceptional 2010-W Proof Gold Eagle represents the pinnacle of modern American gold coinage. Struck at the West Point Mint and certified by NGC as PF70 Ultra Cameo (Certificate #502741), this quarter-ounce gold proof displays the pristine quality and sharp strike characteristic of the finest examples from this popular series. The American Gold Eagle Proof program, established in 1986, has become one of the most sought-after bullion and collectible series in numismatics. The 1/4 oz denomination offers an accessible entry point for collectors seeking fractional gold in proof format. The obverse features John Mercanti's iconic rendition of Lady Liberty, while the reverse displays a family of eagles designed by Miley Busiek—imagery that has resonated with collectors for over three decades. The PF70 designation indicates this coin exhibits no post-mint defects visible under magnification, representing the highest standard of preservation. The Ultra Cameo designation reflects the dramatic contrast between the deeply mirrored fields and the frosted designs, a hallmark of superior proof striking. This example stands as a premier specimen of West Point's 2010 proof production. An outstanding addition to any gold eagle collection or proof set accumulation.
