Description

# 1989-P Proof Gold Eagle 1/4 oz, NGC PF70. This 1989-P Proof Gold Eagle represents a classic example from the early years of the American Eagle Proof program. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint and containing one-quarter troy ounce of pure gold, this coin exemplifies the artistry and quality standards that have defined the series since its inception in 1986. The coin has achieved a perfect NGC PF70 grade, indicating exceptional eye appeal with no visible imperfections under magnification. The obverse features Augustus Saint-Gaudens' iconic Liberty design, while the reverse displays a soaring eagle with shield, engraved by Miley Busiek. Both sides demonstrate the characteristic mirror fields and frosted design elements expected of Proof coinage at this premium grade level. As a quarter-ounce gold Eagle from the late 1980s, this piece appeals to both bullion investors and serious collectors of American Proof coinage. The PF70 designation reflects superior quality that distinguishes this example from typical circulated or lower-grade specimens of the same issue. NGC Certification #9831
