Struck at the West Point Mint, this fractional ounce proof gold eagle has achieved a perfect NGC PF70 grade, indicating flawless surfaces and exceptional eye appeal. The 1/10 oz denomination makes this an accessible entry point for collectors seeking certified proof gold eagles with premium quality. The 2011 proof date falls within the popular modern era of Gold Eagle production, when the West Point Mint's proof coins were highly regarded for their striking quality and finish.
