Description
1991-P Proof Gold Eagle 1/4 oz, PCGS PR70. This exceptional 1991-P Proof Gold Eagle represents one of the finest examples of this popular fractional gold bullion coin. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, this quarter-ounce gold piece contains .2419 troy ounces of pure gold and exhibits the characteristic design featuring Lady Liberty on the obverse and an eagle with olive branch on the reverse, as designed by Augustus Saint-Gaudens and Miley Busiek respectively. The coin has achieved a perfect PCGS PR70 grade, indicating flawless surfaces with no visible imperfections under magnification. This exceptional preservation is particularly noteworthy for a proof gold eagle, as these coins typically see some degree of handling or environmental exposure over the decades. The proof finish displays brilliant, mirror-like fields contrasted with frosted design elements, all preserved in pristine condition. The 1991-P Proof Gold Eagle remains a cornerstone of American proof gold coinage and continues to appeal to both bullion investors and numismatic collectors. The combination of its precious metal content, iconic design, and exceptional grade makes this an outstanding example for serious collectors seeking premium-quality proof gold pieces.
