2004-W Proof Gold Eagle 1/4 oz Blue Label

Description

2004-W Proof Gold Eagle, 1/4 oz, Blue Label. This exceptional PCGS PR70 specimen represents the finest quality for this modern gold bullion proof. The 2004-W quarter-ounce Gold Eagle was produced at the West Point Mint and exhibits the hallmark characteristics of Proof coinage: deeply mirrored fields, sharply struck devices, and pristine surfaces. The blue label designation from PCGS indicates this coin achieved the coveted perfect grade of 70, representing a coin of outstanding eye appeal with no detracting imperfections visible to the naked eye. The 1/4 oz Gold Eagle remains a popular choice among collectors and investors alike, combining the prestige of U.S. Mint proof production with the inherent value of one-quarter troy ounce of pure gold. The obverse features John Merkanti's iconic portrait of Lady Liberty, while the reverse displays an eagle carrying an olive branch, designs that have remained virtually unchanged since the series' inception in 1986. This piece's achievement of the highest possible grade underscores its exceptional quality and preservation. PCGS Certificate #99972
