Description
2008-W Burnished Gold Buffalo 1/10 oz, NGC MS70. This exceptional 2008-W Burnished Gold Buffalo represents one of the finest examples of this modern gold bullion offering. Struck at the West Point Mint and composed of .9999 fine gold, this 1/10 ounce piece showcases the iconic James Earle Fraser design featuring a Native American profile on the obverse and an American buffalo on the reverse—designs that have captivated collectors since their introduction on the 2006 American Buffalo gold series. The NGC MS70 designation indicates this coin exhibits full mint luster with no visible imperfections under magnification, representing the highest grade achievable on the Numismatic Guaranty Company scale. The burnished finish, distinctive to West Point Mint production in this era, creates a subtle matte appearance that distinguishes it from standard uncirculated strikes. Certificate number 399927 provides full authentication and grading documentation. As a fractional gold piece from the early years of the American Buffalo series, this coin appeals to both gold investors and collectors of modern U.S. Mint products. The combination of perfect preservation, prestigious grading, and the enduring appeal of Buffalo gold makes this an outstanding addition to any collection.
