Description
2008-W Proof Gold Buffalo 1/10 oz, Ed Moy Signature. This exceptional NGC PF70 specimen represents one of the finest examples of the 2008-W Proof Gold Buffalo fractional issue. The coin features the iconic American Buffalo reverse design paired with a profile of a Native American on the obverse, both rendered with remarkable detail and sharp striking characteristics. As a 1/10 ounce gold proof, this piece exemplifies the U.S. Mint's commitment to producing world-class fractional precious metal coinage during the early years of the Buffalo Gold series. The PF70 grade designation indicates near-perfect striking and surface quality, with exceptional eye appeal and virtually no imperfections visible under magnification. The proof finish displays the characteristic contrast between the frosted devices and mirrored fields that collectors seek in modern proof gold coins. The Ed Moy signature variant, referencing the Director of the Mint during this issue year, adds an additional layer of significance to this numismatic piece. The 2008-W fractional Buffalo gold coins have maintained strong collector interest, particularly in the highest grades. This example, certified by NGC with certificate number 399932, represents an outstanding opportunity for collectors focused on modern U.S. gold coinage or those building comprehensive Buffalo gold collections.
