Description
2000-W Proof Gold Eagle, 1/4 oz, NGC PF70. This exceptional 2000-W Proof Gold Eagle represents one of the finest examples of America's flagship bullion coin program. Struck at the West Point Mint, this quarter-ounce gold proof showcases the iconic reverse design by Miley Busiek featuring an eagle landing on a nest with an olive branch, while the obverse displays Augustus Saint-Gaudens' celebrated Lady Liberty in full stride. Graded NGC PF70, this coin has achieved the highest possible numerical grade, indicating flawless surfaces with exceptional eye appeal and pristine striking quality. The deep cameo contrast characteristic of West Point proof production is beautifully preserved, with brilliant fields and frosted devices that exemplify the artistry of modern U.S. Mint coinage. The 1/4 oz denomination remains highly sought after by both gold investors and serious proof collectors. The 2000 proof production year represents a significant period in the American Eagle program's history, and this perfect grade example stands as a numismatic treasure. The NGC certification (Cert. #99951) provides authentication and permanence for this remarkable specimen. *Starting Bid: $1,200*
