Description
# 2005-W Proof Gold Eagle 1/4 oz, PCGS PR70. A magnificent example of the 2005-W Proof Gold Eagle, this quarter-ounce gold coin represents the pinnacle of modern American precious metal coinage. Struck at the West Point Mint and certified by PCGS as PR70, this coin achieves the highest possible grade, indicating flawless surfaces with exceptional eye appeal. The Proof Gold Eagle program, established in 1986, continues the tradition of showcasing the United States Mint's finest craftsmanship. This 1/4 oz denomination, composed of .9167 fine gold, features Augustus Saint-Gaudens' iconic Lady Liberty on the obverse and a family of eagles on the reverse—designs that have made these coins highly sought after by both bullion investors and numismatic collectors. The PR70 designation is a significant achievement, as coins reaching this grade are exceptionally scarce. The 2005-W Proof quarter-ounce Gold Eagle, with its perfect strike and pristine condition, represents an outstanding opportunity for collectors seeking top-tier examples of modern U.S. Mint coinage. PCGS Certificate #99977.
