Description
1990-W Proof Gold Eagle 1 oz, PCGS PR70. This exceptional 1990-W Proof Gold American Eagle represents the pinnacle of early modern U.S. bullion coinage. Struck at the West Point Mint, this one-ounce gold proof contains .9167 fine gold and displays the iconic obverse design featuring Lady Liberty striding forward with torch held high, paired with the reverse depicting a family of eagles designed by sculptor Miley Busiek. The coin has achieved a perfect PCGS PR70 grade (PCGS Certification #9845), indicating flawless surfaces with exceptional eye appeal. Proof American Eagles from the early 1990s remain highly sought-after by both bullion investors and serious collectors, particularly those achieving the highest numerical grades. The West Point mint mark examples from this period are particularly desirable, combining strong collector demand with inherent gold value. This specimen represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a gem proof example from the inaugural decade of the American Eagle Proof program, suitable for the most discerning collector or investor.
